Tomorrow's the North American release of Tales of Graces f and Namco Bandai's released the official launch trailer for the game.
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 tomorrow with the European release following sometime in Summer 2012 where it will be also be localized in German and French.

UPDATE: Added some more information about the details revealed in the trailer.
Last month Namco Bandai revealed that the playable characters in Tales of Innocence R would be receiving brand-new Mystic Artes. Up until now we've only seen still images of them but the publisher has just released two new videos showcasing them in their full glory.
According to Namco Bandai the R in the title means "re-imagining", not remake like some had previously thought. Tales of Innocence R will include a revised game theme, a new battle system and a new gameplay system alongside a new opening movie.
Tales of Innocence R will be released on January 26, 2012 in Japan for the PlayStation Vita. No word on a North American or European localization has currently been announced.

It's been a while since we last heard about DLC for Tales of Xillia, which was right around the time of the game's release back in September. With the holiday season fast approaching Namco Bandai has announced a new set of festive-themed DLC for the entire playable cast.
Tales of Xillia will utilize the contrast between light and shadow, which will lead to the game having a different art style direction than Vesperia's anime-style graphics or Graces's watercolor-style graphics (it could be more of a hand-painted or oil painting-like feel if the concept artwork is any indication). Baba stated that when he saw some of the concept artwork images running on actual hardware he was very impressed.
The DLC will be added to the PlayStation Store on December 1, 2011. If you want the full set you'll have to buy each one individually as they will be sold individually for ¥300 each.
Earlier this week we got word that Namco Bandai was set to reveal more information about Tales of Graces f and Tales of the Abyss for the Nintendo 3DS. While today's news isn't from the company itself, GameTrailers has uploaded three new videos showcasing the English localized version of Tales of Graces f.

The A and B-style Artes are confirmed through the video to be known as "Alpha" and "Beta" Artes. The first video showcases the battle system, the second video showcases some of the games bosses and the third and final video showcases the Dualizer item synthesis feature.

The last time we got a scan we learned about new past Tales heroes costume DLC. We have another new scan today and while it doesn't feature much in the way of new information there is something hidden in it that fans of previous entries in the series will enjoy.
Tales of Xillia will utilize the contrast between light and shadow, which will lead to the game having a different art style direction than Vesperia's anime-style graphics or Graces's watercolor-style graphics (it could be more of a hand-painted or oil painting-like feel if the concept artwork is any indication). Baba stated that when he saw some of the concept artwork images running on actual hardware he was very impressed.
If you look at the middle-left area of the scan it's clear that the player is fighting inside an arena, which fans of previous games such as Tales of the Abyss and Tales of Vesperia should remember fondly. No exact specifics seem to be mentioned but it's likely that the cameo fights will be included again if they are adding this mode back into Tales of Xillia.
