Thanks to Kouli, we now know about a new option to create items in Tales of Graces, as well as a new ability for the titles, one of the staples of the Tales of series. 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.

Items can be created in Tales of Graces using a Eres Pot System, which has you put in materials, which will produce recovery items and cook as you travel in the game automatically.

Titles, one of the series staples, now have two new types: Equip Effect Skills and Mastery Skills. The former only lasts as long as you have the title equipped, while the latter stays as long as you gather enough skill points to learn it.
