Tales of Asteria is an upcoming Japan-only mobile RPG for iOS and Android

There's a new mobile Tales of... game on the way.

It's called Tales of Asteria, and it will go live on the App Store and Google Play in Japan in spring.

We don't really know much more about the game at the moment, but we'll fill you in all the same.

Tales of Asteria will feature six protagonists (Cress, Lloyd, Luke, Yuri, Sophie, and Milla) taken from other Tales of... games.

These six will be engaged in a quest to find the fragments of a shattered star-shaped jewel, which can apparently make your wishes come true.

You can check out the teaser trailer for Tales of Asteria below. There's no gameplay in it, mind; just some swoopy cinematics of the main characters.

To do battle here, you'll use a tap-based cross-slide battle interface. We don't know what that means, although it does sound alarmingly similar to the screen-mashing nonsense of Final Fantasy: All the Bravest.

There's an advanced sign-up for the game over on its official site. If you do sign up, Milla Maxwell will be unlocked for you once the game goes live.

We're not entirely sure Tales of Asteria is going to make it over to the West, but we'll keep you updated on this as soon as we hear anything more concrete.
