Bandai Namco explains their seemingly random approach to picking "Tales of" games to remaster

Bandai Namco Entertainment is prioritizing 'Tales of' game remasters based on the availability of original source code and the development teams capable of handling them. Yusuke Tomizawa, general producer for the 'Tales of' IP, explained that the process involves locating and analyzing fragmented data, which can take months. This often leads to a seemingly random release order for remasters, as the company tackles multiple projects concurrently based on feasibility.
