Last week, Namco Bandai released a new Tales of Graces f trailer to announce the North American release date. Today they've released the finalized official boxart and a tentative European release date.
Tales of Graces f (the f stands for "future") has an extra post-game story which takes place after the game's original ending. Without spoiling anything, there seems to be an increase in the monster population, which increases the amount of monster attacks around the world. This causes Asbel and his group to set off once again to determine the cause behind the recent disturbance.
Tales of Graces f will be released in North America on March 13, 2012. Namco Bandai Europe also announced alongside the news of the boxart that they will be releasing the game in that territory in Summer 2012 and it will be localized into German and French.

This week holds the annual Tokyo Game Show event in Japan and Namco Bandai's European branch has released three new videos to show off the latest localization work in Tales of the Abyss for the Nintendo 3DS.
Tales of the Abyss was originally released on the PS2 on December 15, 2005 and was localized in North America on October 10, 2006. The game was regarded as an improvement over Tales of Symphonia, extending that game's multi-line battle system into a battle system which allows players to freely move about the field in battle.
According to Nintendo Power the North American version won't be coming out till 2012 but these trailers from Namco Bandai's European branch still indicate a 2011 release, so it's not clear what's going on regarding that.
Last week Namco Bandai revealed that they would be attending Japan Expo 2011 and would be showing off Tales of Graces f and Tales of the Abyss 3DS, among other titles. We have information about the games thanks to early reports from people who went to the event, including Tales of the Abyss 3DS's finalized European release date.

According to reports, a couple trailers for Tales of the Abyss 3DS were shown off. Tales of Graces f was supposed to receive a trailer but was canned due to technical difficulties, so it was replaced with the Tales of Xillia scenario trailer which received a huge applause when Hideo Baba asked fans if they wanted the game in Europe.
