This is a translation of the "Cross Edition" version of Tales of Phantasia which is basically the 2006 "full voice" version of the game. It is a vastly enhanced version of the game compared to the previous PS1 version, although it keeps much of the basic framework intact. It sports superior graphics, animation and it is voiced in its entirety, which makes it the defacto ultimate version.

In the original ISO of this game, you have the choice of picking either Tales of Phantasia X or Narikiri Dungeon X from the title screen, but this feature has been removed. Life Bottle is working on that separately (as it is a remake of a spinoff game) and hopefully they'll release it standalone sooner or later.

Important Note: PPSSPP v1.19.3 (the current newest mainline build as of writing) has broken the water and heat haze effects within the game. We reached out to the team, and they issued a fix in their dev builds. These fixes are not available in 1.19.3, so here's a link to the relevant dev build until a new mainline build comes out with the fixes. Linux/Steam Deck users may have to compile it themselves or use the Windows build and run it via Proton.
