Bandai Namco has officially translated the second of the previously announced Tales of Arise Beyond the Dawn Prelude short stories. Titled “Two Open to Change,” Dohalim and Kisara are the focus.
The duo’s time over the past year since the base game’s conclusion is elucidated. You can view the official translation of this short story via Bandai Namco’s official website.
The Rinwell and Law prelude story was previously shared. One final prelude story featuring Alphen and Shionne is planned.
New artwork of Dohalim and Kisara was also shared, viewable below:

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.
