The Tales of Graces trailer from the recent Tales of Festival in Japan 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.
This trailer shows off Asbel running across the towns and dungeons in the game (all outside, however), then shifting to showing off the new Shift Style LMBS using Asbel and SoPhie, as well as the use of the new Around Step mechanic. The trailer finishes with some select story scenes from the game.
From our perspective, the game seems to take ideas from Team Destiny games such as the recent Tales of Destiny remake on the PlayStation 2, with Asbel being able to create 16-hit chains in only a few seconds. Aerial attacks are also included alongside the usual ground attacks. Tales of Graces is set to be released in Japan in Q4 2009. No North American release date has currently been announced.
