Dezel is voiced by Daisuke Ono and his weapon of choice is a pendulum. His attribute is Wind, and the character has been designed by Daigo Okumura.

Jump also touches upon the game’s battle system, which is dubbed “Fusionic Chain LMBS” (Linear Motion Battle System).

The new battle system involves new elements, including an “Around Step” feature, a “Blast Gauge” that allows you to perform actions such as pushing enemies away and recovering health, and a “Spirit Chain” feature that allows you to combine attacks at the cost of the gauge.

Tales of Zestiria is in development for the PlayStation 3.
