Tales of Arise Reached 3 Million Units Sold, It’s Also Now Available on Xbox Game Pass
/Bandai Namco Entertainment announced that JRPG Tales of Arise reached the three million units sold mark across digital and physical.
It’s a slow climb for the Tales series’ latest entry as the JRPG reached the two million units sold mark in April 2022. The game was released on September 9, 2021.
Tales of Arise was given mostly positive reviews when it was released as it received a commendable Metacritic score of 87 and has maintained a ‘positive’ status through user reviews on Steam. When I played it myself, it was an easy 9/10 and was a great entry to the Tales series and I still recommend the title to this day.
In fact, the game is more accessible starting today as Tales of Arise was just added to Xbox and PC Game Pass. The JRPG was also added to PlayStation Plus’ Game Catalogue for February, along with classic Tales titles for subscribers to explore the JRPG series.
Tales of Arise was given a lengthy expansion called Beyond the Dawn just last year on November 9. The expansion continues where the main story left off as the group gathers once again to help a young girl through an unfortunate situation.
Tales of Arise is available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC.
Metaphor: ReFantazio is now my favorite title from the Persona team by far. It’s one of those rare games where its main pillars work harmoniously, and you get lost in its charm. It’s a pristine JRPG, with enough style and substance to satisfy hardcore JRPG fans, Persona fans, and even those who rarely touch JRPGs.
