New features include the ability to load cleared Tales of Symphonia game data to receive extra items or Gald at the beginning of the game. The North American version of Dawn of the New World has additional features that were not present in the Japanese release. The pointer is also used for minigames and as a cursor for the Sorcerer's Ring. The development team left the Field Map out due to production schedule deadlines. Rather than the fully explorable Field Map traditionally used in Tales games, a point-and-click system using the Wii Remote is used to navigate the world. ĭawn of the New World makes limited use of the Wii Remote's features. Furthermore, many of the assets and locations in the game have been taken directly from the original Tales of Symphonia, but the textures have been updated. Much of the music in Dawn of the New World is remixed from the soundtrack of the original Tales of Symphonia. There is more voice acting in towns and dungeons than in the previous game. Skits, which are short, optional conversations between the characters, make a return unlike in previous North American releases, these skits are fully voiced. Most of the story is told through real-time cut scenes that were filmed using a motion capture system. The only animated segment in the game is its opening sequence. From the second playthrough on, collected GRADE can be used to purchase game options, or transfer items or skills to carry to the next file. The amount of GRADE received depends on how each battle is fought. Another way to increase a monster's status parameters is by cooking them special recipes, when fed some monsters may be able to evolve into new forms, allowing for "monster customization." The original Symphonia cast, however, do not gain levels through experience points instead, they gain levels during plot events. Once a certain amount has been accumulated, each character or monster will level up, thereby improving their stats and possibly gaining new skills. The number of Experience points gained is given to all members of the party, not divided. The party obtains both experience points and GRADE after each battle. There are also several sidequests available at the Katz Guild. The party can only hold four monsters at a time as such, those not in use can be stored in a pen at the Katz Guild. The monsters are controlled in battle by artificial intelligence. In order to increase the odds of a successful recruitment, the element of the field should align with the element of the monster, and an altered version of the classic Tales affection system helps to persuade them to join the party. Monsters can be recruited once they have been defeated in battle while the elemental grid has four of the same element, as well as the main element matching them. Īnother new feature is the ability to capture, evolve, and level up over 200 monsters to fight alongside Emil.

Another returning element of the series are Mystic Artes.
A meter on the lower part of the screen indicates when the attack can be unleashed. Changing the element of the field determines both the effectiveness of an attack, as well as the characters that can participate in Unison Attacks, which return from the original Symphonia. The battlefield's element can be altered by using three skills with the same elemental attribute. Each battle location, skill, and monster has an elemental attribute. A key feature of this enhanced system is the Elemental Grid. Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World uses the "Flex Range Element Enhanced Linear Motion Battle System" (FR:EE-LiMBS), combining aspects of Tales of the Abyss' and Tales of Destiny's battle systems, to create a battle experience comparable to Tales of Innocence's Dimension Stride Linear Motion Battle System.
