It's almost been a month since our last real bit of Tales of the Heroes: Twin Brave news as most of the focus has been on Tales of Innocence R for the PlayStation Vita as of late. Two new scans have been released which showcase four more of the character present in the upcoming title.
Unlike the other Tales escort titles on the PSP, this game plays similarly to the Musou/Dynasty Warriors franchise with the player controlling one character with a partner character being controlled by the game's AI. Characters from the mothership titles (and surprisingly enough Tales of the Tempest) will be included.
As can be seen in the scan, Asbel and Cheria will be representing Tales of Graces while Cress and Chester will be representing Tales of Phantasia. Outside of that there doesn't seem to be anything else of importance to note in the scans that we haven't already touched upon earlier during our coverage of the game.
Keep on reading to see the new Tales of the Heroes: Twin Brave scans.
A new Tales of Graces scan detailing new DLC has been released. This game is the first mothership (Namco Bandai's term for non-spin-off games in the Tales of series) game for the Wii. The previous Tales of game for the Wii, Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World, was classified as a spin-off sequel.
Both batches of DLC revolve around The Idolm@ster: Dearly Stars and the Vocaloid series. First up will be the Idolm@aster costumes on December 16th, which is for Sophie, Pascal, and Cheria (each being themed after the main characters in the game). Next is a Vocaloid costume on December 23rd for Sophie, themed after the iconic Hatsune Miku.

The first scan shows off some of the Blast Calibers in the game, also gives a clearer look at the gauge that appears during over limits.
