Bandai Namco has therefore announced a new free update for Tales of Arise for October 7th. Planned on all platforms where the game is released, it will mainly add two new game modes: a mode easier than Story mode and Unknown mode, even more difficult than the current highest settings. There will also be three more combat quests and new weapon skins.
A collaboration with Sword Art Online: Alicization Lycoris is also planned for the same date. It will take the form of a paid DLC sold at a price of 1 yen, or just under 760 euros. This DLC will include, among other things, cosmetics of all kinds including haircuts and anime-inspired outfits for Alphen, Shionne and Law, but above all a special fight against Asuna and Kirito. This confrontation will unlock two new weapons and a special art. This collaboration being “mutual”, Alphen and Shionne will also have the right to a small cameo in SAO: Alicization Lycoris, without the form being known for the moment.
