Bandai Namco apologizes profusely.
The Tales Of series is a JRPG license that has been very successful since 1995. In early 2023, the Tales Of Symphonia remaster was released on Xbox One, Xbox Series, PS4, PS5 and Nintendo Switch. It is this last version that interests us here. The game is considered unplayable by many fans, there are massive in-game slowdowns, a pick-up indicator, and most importantly, load times that literally crash the game and console. Gamers have even noticed that this remaster runs at 30 fps on the Nintendo console, even though the base game runs at 60 fps on… GameCube. As a result, the Tales Of Symphonia on Switch remaster is based on the PS2 version, which actually ran at 30fps. Internet users do not understand this choice. Bandai Namco rushed to apologize on Twitter, stating that multiple patches are in development. The Daily is over.
