Bandai Namco has shared a ton of details about Tales of the World: Reve Unitia. You can find them rounded up below.

Story Prologue

– For as long as people have seen dreams in their sleep, there’s been a world that’s accumulated those dreams and taken shape from them
– World is known as Revaria
– Those who live in the world are known as the Lufres
– Lufres maintain balance in the world by purifying Vuur
– Vuur: the embodiment of people’s bad dreams and wavering hearts
– Things have started to change recently
– Vuur, which once had no physical form to call its own, has taken shape as a monster
– Only the Dream Guardians can face Vuur in its current state
– These are a group of powerful Lufres
– But without warning, every last Dream Guardian disappears without a trace
– The only Lufres remaining are young ones that still lack much strength
– They set out to summon people from The Awakened World in the hopes that they can find ones with the power to fight Vuur
– The Tales characters who end up being recruited as a result lose their memories of their respective worlds
– They still have their core beliefs and so they set out to take down a threat that poses danger to every world, not just Revaria
– Vuur continues to grow more powerful
– The young Lufres, otherwise known as Wako in their world, were left behind live in fear
– Taking matters into their own hands, they use what little power they have to try and summon Awakened Ones, but it ends in failure as their targets are spread out all over the world of Revaria, rather than just with them in their town
– One of the young Wako is Terun
– Terun leaves the town in order to try and find these Awakened Ones in spite of fear of Vuur
– While these fears are realized when Vuur tries to attack him, he’s saved in the nick of time by two of the ones he’s looking for, Asbel and Lloyd
– The two work with Terun and the others continue to gather more and more people who were summoned to Revalia as the work on undoing the danger that besieges the world

Nahato’s Storyline

– While Terun is meeting with Asbel and Lloyd, Nahato meets two more Tales characters summoned to Revalia, Yuri and Jade
– Worried about the fate of the Tales worlds in addition to Revalia, Nahato and company take up arms and fight
– Terun’s story otherwise unfolds from a different perspective altogether

Terun

– Terun: “Please, let met go with you all! I can do more than just project you all!”
– Youngest member of the Lufres
– Lacks in confidence and strength but makes up for with sheer kindness
– His dealings with the Awakened Ones result in him awakening to a strong resolve
– Terun normally resembles something akin the Tales series’ previous mascot characters, but in battle, he takes on the form of a human and fights alongside the other characters

Nahato

– “Then that makes two of us. I have something to protect as well. That’s all.”
– Strongest Dream Guardian among the Lufres
– Like a parent/sibling to Terun as the one who looks after him
– Nahato uses the power of Dream Silk to take on Vuur and like Terun has two different forms he uses depending on the situation and stands at 5’8” (173 cm.) when he’s in his fighting form

Asbel Lhant (Tales of Graces)

– “We can’t turn our backs on this problem, not when it affects our own worlds as well.”
– Young swordsman who ends up helping to save Terun in a forest
– Polite and serious, he’s always good about looking after others

Lloyd Irving (Tales of Symphonia)

– “What are you saying? Of course we’re all friends here!”
– Swordsman who wields two blades
– Helps Asbel save Terun
– While he can get fired up, Lloyd is fundamentally a nice person at heart

Natalia L.K. Lanvaldear (Tales of the Abyss)

– “It’s only natural that I’d help someone who’s hurt.”
– Comes from regal stock
– Natalia is an archer who’s more than willing to take up her bow to ensure justice is served

Yuri Lowell (Tales of Vesperia)

– “I’m not one to just stand and gawk while people are out their risking their neck. I’m going to go lend them a hand.”
– Yuri is deeply cynical of the world around him, choosing to operate under his own principles as a swordsman
– His sheer speed will have players’ heads spinning if they’re not careful

Jade Curtis (Tales of the Abyss)

– “Heh, you kids are just full of energy, aren’t you? Fine, you win. Shall I tag along then?”
– Mysterious man who’s highly proficient in both Artes and fighting with a spear
– Tends to wear a smile, but it’s hard to read what emotions really lie underneath it
– “I’m going, too! I want to help everyone else out!”
– Naïve and friendly on the outside, but has a strong willpower about her
– She mainly uses strong attack Artes, but is also fully capable of acting as a healer as well

Yesterday we heard that Disney Infinity 2.0 could be launching in August. That information was based on a deleted post on the official Disney Fan Club D23 website. As it turns out though, the report was “incorrect.”

Disney Interactive passed along the following statement to Game Informer:

“In D23?s News Briefs published April 15, 2014, we erroneously reported about the launch of the next chapter of Disney Infinity. This information was incorrect. More news about Disney Infinity will be shared on April 30, and we hope you will check back for that update.”

The image above comes from a classification on Korea’s RRA website. At the moment, it’s unclear as to what the listing pertains to.

The unknown Nintendo device is described as a “portable video player” and features the model name WIS-009. I won’t even try to speculate about this, as it could turn out to be nothing at all. We’ll keep the post updated with additional news (if there is any).
