Tales of Arise has already hit an impressive sales milestone less than a week after release. Bandai Namco announced today that in just “a few days after release,” the latest release in the long-running Tales series, Tales of Arise, surpassed 1 million units sold worldwide. This makes it the fastest-selling title in the franchise. Tales of Arise’s 1 million units sold brings the total series’ units sold up to a very respectable 25 million. “We are very proud and humbled to see fans and newcomers reception playing Tales of Arise,” producer Yusuke Tomizawa said. “Our goal with this title was to open the franchise to as many players as possible while maintaining the Tales of DNA and uniqueness that has allowed the franchise to stay strong for more than 25 years. We would like to thank players for their support.” Opening up the franchise to as many players as possible came by way of essentially a Tales reboot. In an interview with IGN, Tomizawa said Tales of Arise is “both a reboot in a sense that we want former Tales fans to come back to this game, as well as attract new players with these stunning new graphics, visuals, the aesthetics, and all that good stuff.”Have you played Tales of Arise?YESNOScreens – Tales of Arise If you haven’t yet picked up Tales of Arise and are planning to, check out IGN’s guide for what comes in each edition of the game.
