Earlier today was the second day of Tales of Festival 2010, but unlike yesterday there doesn't seem to be that much news coming, except for the rest of the popularity poll results and some other minor Tales news.
As we reported on earlier, Tales of Phantasia: Narikiri Dungeon X will be receiving a pre-order bonus DVD. The name of the DVD will be Dramatic DVD Tales of Costume!?. There's also rumours that an Asbel costume for Dio will be made available, which would make sense considering he appears on the DVD.

Earlier today was the first day of Tales of Festival 2010, which brought some new news along with it, along with partial results of the Tales of Popularity poll that was going on at Tales Channel earlier this year.
Namco Bandai has confirmed the rumors that Tales of Phantasia: Narikiri Dungeon X will be having demos. The first demo will hit in early July, which will focus on the improved battle system in the Tales of Phantasia part of the game. Later in the month, a second demo will hit which features the Narikiri Dungeon X portion of the game. The rumored August 5, 2010 release date was also confirmed at the event.
As for the rumored PS3 Tales game, known as Tales of Unitia, the game was a no-show at the Festival except for a mention that this Summer a "major" announcement would occur. It's unknown why they would push the unveiling that far, but they may be putting some extra polish on the game and didn't want to unveil it just yet.
More news as well as the results of the popularity polls can be found in the full story.
A new Director's Corner Video has been added to the official minisite for Tales of VS. on Tales Channel, the Japanese hub for the Tales of series. The game will pit the various Tales of characters in a fighting free-for-all, using their well-known Artes, locations from the different games, and even items from the various games, as well as each character's unique Mystic Arte.
Like before, this is a combo video. The first half has the Director facing off against Luke fon Fabre using Asch. He deals a myriad of combo attacks against Luke, ending with Asch's Mystic Arte. The other half has the Director facing off against Lloyd Irving using Kratos Aurion, again dealing a string of combos and finishing with an Mystic Arte.
Asch (Tales of the Abyss) and Ruca Milda (Tales of Innocence) have been officially revealed to be in Tales of VS, as well as a new video showing off the combos in the game. The game will pit the various Tales of characters in a fighting free-for-all, using their well-known Artes, locations from the different games, and even items from the various games, as well as each character's unique Mystic Arte.
Asch and Ruca's videos were the standard fare as far as character videos are concerned, showing off their attacks and combos, followed by their respective Mystic Artes at the end of the video. One of the more interesting updates, however, came from that character that fell on the index page a few updates ago. It appears it is a representation of the game's director. This section will be used as a Director's Corner, which will have specialized updates, most of which will be combo videos. The video available in this update shows the intricacies of the combo system in the game, which will take cues from the previous Tales of games.
More information, as well as the videos, can be found in the full story.
Today was the 2nd annual Tales of Festival, a fan event for the Tales of fans in Japan. Among the news announced was that some downloadable content that will be available shortly after the game's release.
The PlayStation 3 port of Tales of Vesperia includes numerous extras and changes, such as a brand new character, Patty Fleur, the addition of new bosses like the Sword Dancer, Flynn being playable for more that just one battle, among other changes. The game will also be fully voiced and will include new and altered scenes, such as Yuri fighting Don Whitehorse when the party visits Keiv Moc.
Each game will have a product code that can be used to download special costumes for Yuri, Estelle, and Flynn. The costumes will be Asch, Tear, and Luke's costumes, respectfully. Rumors are going around that more DLC could be on the way later this year.
