“I've played about half the Tales series. Got burnt out on them and let this one sit for 5.5 years before finally playing it. Quickly took over my favorite entry in the series (sorry Yuri and Vesperia!). The art, the…”

“This was a pretty good game overall. The combat was fun and wasn't bogged down by excessive mechanics like in some more recent JRPGs. There was enough things to do without being overwhelming. I though the story was…”

“Very good tales game. Not good as older titles, but good. Problem with low FOV, you need to moded. No 2x exp as revard, very stingy with newgame + revards.”

— a player, Steam review · 121 hrs played“Tales of ARISE is a very good JRPG - only the third ever Tales game I played at time of writing (after Symphonia and Berseria), but definitely my favorite out of the three.
