Yet in a dark prison cell far from human contact lies a woman named Velvet Crowe, whose peaceful life was shattered three years ago in one of the 'Scarlet Nights' that used to inspire terror the world over - the same night the rest of the world knows as the Advent.

Wielding a holy sword and a philosophy of ' reason over emotion', Artorius causes the Advent of angelic malakhim into the world, and leads the Exorcists of 'The Abbey' in a crusade to eradicate Daemonblight once and for all. That was until the day a saviour named Artorius Collbrande appeared and united the world against the bestial hordes that threatened to destroy it. Ordinary humans and animals became possessed by evil spirits and were transformed into bloodthirsty monsters that preyed upon the living. Many hundreds of years before the events of Zestiria, the continent of Midgand suffered under a terrible curse called 'Daemonblight'.

It is the first Mothership Tales title to have a female protagonist (who is not sharing the position with a male protagonist). It is available on PS3 note Japan-only, due to the waning popularity of the format outside of the Japanese market, PS4, and PC. It received an international release on January 24th, 2017 in North America and January 27th, 2017 in Europe. The game was released on August 18th, 2016 in Japan. Tales of Berseria is the sixteenth mainline entry in the Tales Series, and a Distant Prequel to Tales of Zestiria.

To live as you are, and to be true to yourself. In my heart is a flame I could not extinguish even if I wanted to.
