Update 1.2 to _Tales of Zestiria_ added a change that checks the file-size of the intro, and prevents it playing if it detects it has been replaced, thus [\#748240](//www.nyaa.se/?page=view&tid=748240) doesn't work anymore. The old one will STILL play in-game at the point where it is triggered, just not on Title screen.
Helpfully _DragonScy_ over at Reddit provided a solution for us;
Western version of _Tales of Zestiria_ removed lyrics from the intro movie. Use this to get those back to the Steam version of Zestiria.
Instructions as follows;
-Open the game folder of your copy of Tales of Zestiria (Steam, PC), open directory **RAW/MOVIE**, drop this file in there.
-Find and rename **AM\_TOZ\_OP\_001.bk2**
-Rename **New\_AM\_TOZ\_OP\_001.bk2** to **AM\_TOZ\_OP\_001.bk2**
Now, once the intro starts, it will include the lyrics instead of the guitar solo. **This version will play even on the Title screen**.
You can watch this file stand-alone too, but you need RadTools.
Now, is someone out there up for a task of creating a subtitled version of this file that can be switched in instead? (Granted, the check introduced in Tales of Zestiria patch 1.2 makes this a tad more difficult I suppose...)
A translated version of the intro movie can be found [here](//www.nyaa.se/?page=view&tid=747181).

Hey all! In the most recent patch (1.2, with all the bug fixes) they seem to have blocked the original japanese opening fix found at launch. There is a workaround though, but it takes a bit of effort.
The game is (apparently) checking for file size, so the easiest way to get around is change the file size. Using a bk2 file editor (like RAD Video Tools) you can add the audio and work around it. I used RAD, so this is an explanation with that software. Open RAD Tools and select AM\_TOZ\_OP\_001, click "mix in sound", and select "AM\_TOZ\_OP\_001\_JP" from wherever you saved it before. Wait a few min, and you'll have another file that works!
Now, let's see if we need v3, v4...
