Indeed. Though it's running in Unreal Engine 4 so animations should be good or good enough...

 

[Demon_Skeith]

Looks a bit too good and not enough animeish like past titles is my concern.

New Hero looks cool from the pic.
Wonder if there's going to be ship with the lead female character there lol

Berseria's ending is a major letdown like I mentioned before, maybe Baba no longer involved with tales is a good thing...

Saw a new art and more description:

Tales of Arise is the latest chapter in the popular Tales Of Japanese role-playing-game franchise. With Yusuke Tomizawa (head of the God Eater franchise) at the helm of the Tales Of development team, the franchise and its latest chapter promise to deliver new storylines, gameplay dynamics, and worlds for players to explore.

Tales of Arise takes place in a solar system containing the two neighboring planets of Dahna and Rena. The inhabitants of Dahna have always paid reverence to their planetary neighbors on Rena – a planet they can clearly see in their sky – as a land of the righteous and divine. For the people of Dahna, legends and lore about Rena and its inhabitants have been handed down for countless generations, and through time, have become facts in their minds that have actually masked a cruel reality for the people of Dahna. For 300 years, the people of Rena have ruled over Dahna, pillaging the planet of its resources and stripping its people of their dignity and freedom. Tales of Arise begins with two people, born on different worlds, each longing to change their fate and create a new future for themselves and perhaps their people. Featuring an original cast of characters, a dramatic storyline, dynamic combat, breath-taking environments, with some classic Tales Of elements included; Tales of Arise marks a new beginning for the famed JRPG franchise.

Just read comments from the producer of the game:

Comments by Yusuke Tomizawa have been published by Bandai Namco Japan:

Tales of Arise begins with the fateful meeting of its protagonists: a young man with an iron mask from planet Dahna, and a young woman from planet Rena, who is currently on the run from her clan for a certain reason. Together, they strive to forge a new future for themselves and their people.

Tales of Arise marks a new beginning in the over twenty years of history of the Tales of franchise. Tales of Arise is an ambitious title for all RPG fans around the world. It will be both following the tradition of Tales of Series while bringing in its own evolutions. Tales of Arise mixes high-end, latest technology graphics while keeping the Tales of Series‘ touch. Tales of Arise will include a moving story that will be at times heavy, and at times heartwarming. An extremely immersive fantasy world, charismatic, loveable characters, and challenging battles await. We look forward to players enjoying this new adventure.
