Tales of Arise 1st Anniversary Party Illustration Shared; Event Occurring September 2022

Bandai Namco has shared new artwork celebrating the soon-to-be 1-year anniversary of Tales of Arise. The illustration depicts the primary cast, with Shionne and Alphen appearing as they do in the game’s second half.

Additionally, tickets for the Tales of Arise 1st Year Anniversary party are available to purchase, occurring at Yokosuka Arts Theater Grand Theater on September 25, 2022. The Japanese voice cast for the game’s party members will be present alongside Zephyr’s VA. Tales of Arise initially launched on September 9, 2021, so this event’s proximity is quite close.

Further, several new pieces of merchandise are available to purchase. We will be providing coverage for those items soon.

Tales of Arise advances the graphics with the new “Atmospheric Shader,” which presents the world as if it were a hand-drawn painting. Further, the combat has evolved, allowing for a better sense of spectacle and direct player feedback based upon their actions. Finally, the graphics, combat system, characters, and story combine to present a vivid and realized world that the developer hopes will immerse players.
