Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition Update 1.2 Launches Tomorrow

Many of us at Noisy Pixel definitely enjoyed our time exploring Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition — calling it a “timeless adventure” in our review. The timeless adventure, however, will be even greater as Bandai Namco has announced that update 1.2 for Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition will release tomorrow, March 7.

The update includes adjustments and gameplay fixes for all versions of the game. Here’s a nice list of everything in the latest update:

All Versions

  • Adjusted the height of certain enemies both in the overworld map and in battle.
  • Fixed the display lag that would occur in Mantaic.

  • Improved stability of other behaviors.

PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Switch Versions
