TALES OF THE WORLD: RADIANT MYTHOLOGY

is a spin-off of the '''Tales''' role-playing game series for the PlayStation Portable. Like some of the previous games that bear ''Tales of the World'' in their title, this game is a crossover title featuring characters from various ''Tales'' games. Unlike other games in the ''Tales of the World'' series, this one has been released in North America. The theme song for the game is ''Kamihikōki'' by Kana Uemura, and the opening song is Uemura's ''Hikari to Kage''.

Story

An ancient kingdom is under assault by foreign descenders. As a last resort, the world's life-giving tree (the World Tree) uses the last of its power to create a new character-you (a local descender). As always, the Tales of the World spin-offs add Tales characters from entries in the main installments. They play as NPCs that will assist the player throughout the game to stop the villain from destroying the world.

Gameplay

The gameplay resembles in many ways that of a MMORPG, albeit without the online part. Many quests are available from the beginning at the Guild and completing them rewards Fame Points and Gald; upon reaching certain levels of Fame a new Story Quest is unlocked, which leads to new events. The player's character is also fully customizable with the equipment available at the Blacksmith Shop and changing it affects both stats and visual appearance. The typical "Tales of" crafting system is also in the game, allowing the player to further customize his/hers equipment.

Battle System

The game uses the Flex Range Linear Motion Battle System found in the PlayStation 2 game Tales of the Abyss. This system allows the player character to move freely across the field.
