The demo of Tales of Arise is now available, so we took the opportunity to capture two videos in 4K on Xbox Series X. For the first one, we selected the 'Prioritize Framerate' mode, then for the second one the 'Prioritize Graphics' mode.
davton, thanks for capturing and posting these videos.
I hope this new take on the Tales of series does well both commercially and critically. Like the Xenoblade games, they've always been great games, but have very complex and convoluted systems - specially the battle system.
I'm hoping that it got streamlined without losing the strategy and depth required to make those brilliant fights. Either way, the series deserves more acclaim and sales in the West.
After Persona 5, Final Fantasy 7 (Remake), Fire Emblem: Three Houses and many other Japanese RPGs, I believe more people are willing to give a chance to a Japanese RPG. Now the game just needs to be very good to earn those. Looking forward to it and seeing the results.

@Driftwood Awesome! I’m loving it! It does show a much crisper picture and the frame rate looks good! I was playing Stella Blade and Dragonball Soarkling Blast! :) (2 Weeks ago)
