About Tales of Arise™

Tales of Arise is an action RPG rendered with a new "Atmospheric Shader" that draws on anime and watercolor painting, giving its characters and environments a soft, hand-painted look. The result is a world where expressive character designs move through delicate, richly detailed backgrounds, and ufotable's animated cutscenes punctuate the story at its most important moments.

The game is set in Dahna, a living world whose varied natural landscapes shift in appearance with the time of day. You can scale rocky cliffs, swim across rivers, gather at a campfire to cook, and journey between towns as you press deeper into your quest to free its people from oppression by an alien world. Exploration and downtime are woven together with the drama, making the planet feel inhabited rather than merely traversed.

Combat is fast and stylish, built around a Boost Strike system that lets you link powerful attacks together with your party. Chaining Artes, Boost Attacks, and Boost Strikes into extended combos is central to bringing down enemies. At the heart of it all are Alphen and Shionne, protagonists caught between the divided Renan and Dahnan peoples, who grow alongside a memorable cast of companions as they confront the fate of two worlds on PC.
