This fall, Bandai NAMCO will finally release the next game in the beloved Tales of series, Tales of Arise. With it being E3 season, the developer decided to wow the audience of Summer Game Fest with an absolutely gorgeous new trailer.
Tales of Arise carries the DNA of the much-loved Tales of franchise while also introducing advanced graphics and an evolved combat system to help push the series into the future. A new “Atmospheric Shader” developed by BANDAI NAMCO Studios adds subtle touches to the look and feel of the world evoking a hand-drawn painting. Combat has also evolved, allowing for a better sense of spectacle and direct player feedback based upon their actions. The graphics, combat system, characters, and story all work together to present a vivid and realized world that will immerse players as they are transported to the many environments and biomes they will explore throughout their time with Tales of Arise.
Additionally, Bandai NAMCO also unveiled a Collector’s Edition for Tales of Arise.
