Tales of Eternia Remastered is set for release on October 15, 2026, on consoles and October 16 on Steam, with the original opening movie and theme song confirmed.
Bandai Namco announced Tales of Eternia Remastered during a Nintendo Direct livestream on June 9, 2026. The remaster brings the 2000 PlayStation RPG to modern platforms for the first time since the 2005 PSP version. It will launch on Nintendo Switch 2, Switch, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, with a console release date of October 15 and a Steam release on October 16.
The remaster includes toggleable original visuals and sound, quality-of-life features, and new difficulty options. It preserves the 2D battle system and the story of two worlds. On July 4, Bandai Namco released the opening movie, which uses GARNET CROW's song "flying," the same theme from the original 2000 game. The company had filed a trademark for Tales of Eternia shortly before the announcement, which had sparked speculation about a remaster.
The announcement was part of a larger Nintendo Direct presentation that also featured a new Xenoblade game and Donkey Kong Bananza collaborations. The remaster ends a 21-year gap since the last console port of the game, which originally introduced the series' Linear Motion Battle System to a wider audience.
