Details about Tales of Arise
The long-running Tales series returns with Tales of Arise, just in time for the franchise's 25th anniversary.
Explore two unique worlds, Dahna, a medieval-styled world, and Rena a technological powerhouse. Rena subjugates the people of Dahna, leading to a never-ending conflict of ideals and hardships. Play as Alphen and Shionne, two characters from two different worlds, who must come together with a band of other party members and unite the worlds of Dahna and Rena together.
Featuring the patented action-style combat system the Tales series is known for, new additions include the Boost Strike system, which allows players to chain together combos of attacks with your party members. Using this is the key to striking a deadly blow against enemies in battle! Along with a new graphics shader and more lush, believable world space with day and night cycles to contend with, Tales of Arise hopes to be a triumphant return for the Tales series.
Tales of Arise is available for the PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series S and X.
