Place names such as towns and nature are all different from the future seen in Tales of Zesteria, too. Though it's set in the same world, the world of the past in Tales of Berseria is completely different than that of the future. The setting of Tales of Berseria is known as the ”Wasteland." The continent in the middle of this world is what eventually comes to be called ”Glenwood," which is seen in Tales of Zestiria. Tales of Berseria and Tales of Zestiria are set in the same world, however the story of Tales of Berseria is set long in the past. The story begins with her executing a plan to escape and get revenge on Artorius for what he did.

Velvet manages to somehow escape death, and is instead captured and imprisoned for three years. Artorius, a man with the power to fight against Daemons, kills many of the transformed villagers, including her brother. However her village was infected with Daemonblight. The central character of the story is Velvet Crowe, a woman who some years ago lived a normal life in her village on the outskirts of the kingdom. To fight against this a savior known as Artorius appeared and formed the Abbey, an organization supported by the kingdom with the goal of fighting against the spread of Daemonblight. Within the past decade a disease known as Daemonblight has begun to spread, infecting humans, plants, and animals, and turning many of them into violent creatures. Because many places are divided by seas, rivers, and oceans, this world is highly dependant on ships for transportation, communication, and trade, and even pirate crews have appeared to take advantage of this fact. It is a very diverse place, with each area having its own culture and architecture depending on the climate and environments its residents have to deal with. The central region of this world is the Holy Kingdom of Midgand, a massive kingdom whose territory spans over several islands and continents. Tales of Berseria is set on a world called Wasteland.
