Description
The renowned Tales series comes to the PlayStation® 2 with the extraordinary depth of an RPG and the furiously fast real-time battles of an authentic fighting game. In development for several years (the team includes members of the Soul Calibur development team), Tales of Legendia offers fantastic 3D graphics, dynamic battle scenes and an emotionally- charged storyline. Players can now battle huge monsters with fighting-game like controls with X-LiMBS, Namco's new Crossover Linear Motion Battle System.
Tales of Legendia features a unique cast of characters designed by Kazuto Nakazawa, the internationally renowned Japanese artist acclaimed for his amazing character designs in Kill Bill: Vol. 1.
Tales of Legendia is an epic tale of love and heroism that explores the ties that bind us all. Senel Coolidge, a young expert in the special skill called "eres," was drifting in the misty ocean on a small boat with his younger sister Shirley. As food ran out and their strength deteriorated, an island suddenly burst through the mist and approached the boat with astonishing speed, engulfing it with perilous waves. When they awoke on the shore, the siblings realized it was not an ordinary island, but actually the deck of the mysterious giant ship called Legacy. Have they stumbled upon an unknown civilization, or is the Legacy a relic of something long past?

Legendia is a more-of-the-same RPG for anyone who thought Phantasia's lengthy quest just wasn't long enough
