A free Tales of Arise update will be released later this week, introducing new content to the game.

　　This free update, which will be released on October 7th, will introduce two new difficulty settings: Easiest, which will be easier than Story, and Unknown, harder than Chaos. The new update will also introduce three new bonus battles that will reward players with new weapons.

　　New paid DLC is also coming to Tales of Arise this week. The Sword Art Online Collaboration Pack will include a fight against Kirito and Asuna, new outfits for Alphen, Shionne, and Law, new weapons, and a new Mystic Art for Alphen.

　　Tales of Arise is now available on PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and Xbox One worldwide. Learn more about one of the best JRPG released this year by checking out my review.

　　With its engaging story, dark atmosphere, charming characters, and excellent combat, Tales of Arise provides an experience that feels both new and familiar at the same time, making for a game that both long-time fans and newcomers will enjoy. While the excessive linearity and the removal of multiplayer will disappoint some, the pros far outweigh the cons, making Tales of Arise one of the best entries in the series to date.
