Bandai Namco has itself a pretty good year. From the gorgeous and mind-bending Little Nightmares II to the anime love letter that is Scarlet Nexus, the publisher has had a steady dose of fantastic titles for fans to play in 2021. But the fun doesn’t stop there.Tales of Arise’s release is just around the corner, and we have good news for fans of the series: it’s real, real good.
The latest entry in the long-running series is a standout with a heartfelt and engaging story that deals with some heavy themes with tact and levity to keep players engaged throughout their time with the protagonists. The game also features a highly satisfying combat system that sees you using multiple characters and their varying abilities to take down the exciting and varied baddies that patrol the world. We at GI have enjoyed our time with the game so much that we want to share the good times with you!

We’re kicking off the party a little early this week and starting at 1 p.m. CT. We’ll be picking up our playthrough around the second chapter and past what players have seen from their time with the demo for those worried about spoilers.
