Tales of Arise Beyond the Dawn Reveals New Alphen Render

Bandai Namco has shared a new character render for Tales of Arise Beyond the Dawn featuring the protagonist Alphen. This is an altered version of his original Tales of Arise render, except now sans mask.

Tales of Arise Beyond the Dawn is a story set one year after the ending of Tales of Arise. Alphen, Shionne, and the rest of the party meet a new character by the name of Nazamil, a misfortunate young girl who is the daughter of a Renan lord and a Dahnan slave. Players can anticipate over 20 hours of content, with new dungeons, costumes, sidequests, and boss battles.

Regarding carry-over boons, players will be rewarded various bonuses dependent on their achievement progress in the main game. But you will still be able to play Beyond the Dawn even if you haven’t yet beaten Tales of Arise, even though you’ll need the base game to even play this content in the first place. Characters will also start at predetermined levels in this expansion for balancing reasons.

You can view the new render of Alphen in Tales of Arise Beyond the Dawn below:
