If you’re a Tales of Symphonia fan then you might have gotten quite upset after finding out that the so-waited OVA covered just around 35% of the story, when Lloyd and company are about to warp to Tethe’alla. Well, it seems Bandai Namco Games heard the fans and recently announced at the Tales of Festival (event dedicated to everything related to the ‘Tales of. . .’ franchise) that Tales of Symphonia: Tethe’alla Chapter has now a green light for production.

This new addition to the original will also come in OVA form, although it’s still uncertain how many episodes it will consist of. A great announcement for the Tales of Symphonia fans, waiting just for the right moment for Lloyd to shout “Demon Fang!”

The new Namco game, “Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World” is been released right now Thursday June 26, 2008 inside many many stores in Japan (Although the Japanese name is “Knights of Ratatosk”). It is a good time to rejoice since this game is also planned to come to the Americas for the Nintendo Wii. I can’t wait to get my hands on this one. And they better keep the multiplayer feature, it was definitely a great, great idea.

Release date in the US hasn’t been announced but I hope it to be scheduled before Christmas!
