Tales of Arise is a 'series rebirth' (Famitsu)
Planetary
In an interview with producer Yuusuke Tomizawa, Famitsu has published new information on the upcoming revitalization of the 'Tales of' series.
Tales of Arise has been in development since before Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition released more than one year ago.
The dedicated engine used for previous games will not be reused in Tales of Arise. The game will be based on Unreal Engine 4.
Development is being handled solely by Bandai Namco studios, including staff from Berseria and Phantasia.
"Arise" was used as a codename for the project during development, and ultimately became the game's title as well, because the team felt that the word "Arise" represented their desire to revitalize the series.
