Bandai Namco announced in June that Tales of Zestiria will be coming on Steam on October 20, which was a perfect news for fans of the long-running “Tales Of” franchise and there will be even more release coming to PC soon and one of it is an HD remake of Tales of Symphonia that will be releasing on 2016, but Steam didn’t state which month or quarter of 2016.
Herve Hoerdt from Bandai Namco said, “As we announced during our Level-Up event, 2015 is full of surprise for Tales of fans. Bringing Tales of Zestiria to PlayStation 4 and PC was our first step towards the celebration of the 20th Anniversary, bringing Tales of Symphonia HD, an all-time favourite, to PC is now the second step! We are working hard to bring more exciting content for Tales of Lovers in Western countries, and we hope that our efforts are appreciated!”
