Bandai Namco is holding a special stream for the Tales of 22nd anniversary! It’s a bit of an odd anniversary to celebrate, but it’s pretty likely we’ll see a new game announcement. The stream will be held December 16 from 20:00-22:00 JST, or 3:00-5:00 PST.
The stream will be broadcasted on YouTube and other Japanese streaming services. Gematsu translated the overview of the stream:

The most release of the Tales of series was Tales of Berseria. Check out our review:
The Tales of franchise has a rich history in crafting memorable, epic stories and implementing intuitive action combat. Tales of Berseria is no exception, and it drives home a rather powerful message that will hit close to home for most people. It’s difficult to see this at first, because on the surface, it acts like a stereotypical JRPG.
What are you hoping to see from this stream?
