Tales of Arise From Bandai Namco Announced

The latest entry in the “Tales of” franchise has been revealed at E3 2019, coming 2020.

Revealed during Microsoft’s Xbox E3 2019 press conference, the new entry is called Tales of Arise. The game was actually leaked late last week, but is now official.

Tales of Beseria came to Northa America in 2017. IGN’s Tales of Beseria review said “Tales of Berseria is a surprisingly strong showing for this long-running series. Its tragic story of broken people fighting on the wrong side of history makes it utterly compelling, and its well-tuned combat more than makes up for its lack of interesting environments.”

E3 2019: Marvel’s Avengers Game Coming To Google Stadia, Square Enix Confirms

Marvel’s Avengers is one of the most anticipated games of E3 2019, and while it’s yet to be fully revealed, we’ve now learned one further detail about the game: it’s coming to Google Stadia, in addition to PS4, Xbox One, and PC.

The news was revealed by the game’s official Twitter account. It tweeted an image of a large poster advertising the game at the LA Convention Center–the venue for E3–and on that poster, the four platforms can be seen. A notable omission, however, is Nintendo Switch, so it seems as if the Avengers game will not be coming to Nintendo’s hybrid console.

Marvel’s Avengers is the first chapter in a multi-game partnership between the comic book titan and Square Enix. The initial trailer confirmed that the world it is set in hasn’t been too kind to superheroes–perhaps they’ve even been demonized. “They say the time of heroes is over,” a narrator says in the original teaser trailer. “That if you’re different, you’re dangerous. But I know the truth. The world will always need heroes. We just need to reassemble.”

Square Enix has said Avengers “is being designed for gamers worldwide and will be packed with all the characters, environments, and iconic moments that have thrilled longtime fans of the franchise.” The game is being developed by Crystal Dynamics, the studio behind the 2013 Tomb Raider reboot and its sequel Rise of the Tomb Raider.

For more on the upcoming superhero game, check out everything we know about Marvel’s Avengers (the game). We’ll hopefully learn more very soon during Square Enix’s E3 2019 press conference.
