Tales of Arise is a highly regarded game for tackling the topic of racism and its structural influences on our society, but also the same could be said for the dynamics it gives birth to between the main cast members, and how they are constantly finding out more about themselves during every step of the way. Also it was really charming in how it paves the way for us to see many different kinds of love bearing fruit.
The beloved JRPG Tales of Arise has become available on Xbox and PC Game Pass and PlayStation Plus Game Catalogue today, but not before passing 3 million copies sold.
It's a great entry into the Tales franchise I enjoyed it. I just wonder if Namco will make a new Tales game. Or will they make a sequel or prequel to Arise. Like they have with past Tales games like Berseria being a prequel to Zestiria, Tales of Xillia got a sequel, Tales of Symphonia got a sequel even though it's crap. Either way I am excited for the next Tales game.
I have slept om this series. First game was Arise and it was awesome. I just didn't like the end where they threw one mini boss after the other until the last boss.
February’s Game Catalog lineup for PlayStation Plus brings together racing thrills, sci-fi adventure and a selection of entries from a classic RPG series. Take to the streets in Need for Speed Unbound, blast off into space in The Outer Worlds: Spacer’s Choice Edition, then experience some acclaimed RPG fantasy action in the Tales of… series. These and many more titles are playable from February 20. Let’s take a closer look at each game in turn.
Finally, Resistance: Retribution 🔥
It's an alright month overall. I think Sony should try to more consistently get some high quality indies Day 1 in the service, e.g. Ultros would have been good. Those have usually been some of the better months, e.g. Stray, Sea Of Stars, Tchia.
Shame that for this version of Outer Worlds, you can't import your save. 😔 Truly Spacer's Choice
retribution was a cool game. It's the only one that allowed you to link a DS3 controller using Resistance 2 to play it (as far as i know). It was an interesting experiment that didnt offer 2nd analog support though but Im betting this version does.
Joke’s on Outer Worlds Spacers Choice. I quit after the first planet in Outer Worlds.
Unbound lol. N I got it for 15 physical, 🤷🏽. I'll take it. Jus got extra this year for $80, which is a great deal. If I can pay $80 on sale every year I'd stick with Extra. I don't mind buying a game but then it shows up here cause then I can download it to have it digitally but still have MY copy. Once they take it off I can still play it.
You can say what you want about day one purchases but besides that Plus really blows GamePass out of the water.
NFS, Outer Worlds and 4 different Tales of Games... and Retribution. And you throw the monthly games on top of that... its no competition.
BTW... how is it that no one realized that Microsoft could just put its games on Plus. No one seems to realize that Microsoft and Sony are now working to enrich each other. (Console ware is over)
Sadly, Retribution is only for premium users... not us extra folk. I do have the original UMD, but it would be nice to get it digitally like i did with killzone liberation and stardust. Both of which i already owned digitally on my Go/Vita and it was cool when those were made available for the PS5 as then i could dl them.
How can Game Pass be the best deal on gaming when it is more expensive than PS+?
Gamepass PC is way cheaper to PS+ and even way cheaper if you use MS rewards points
Is that Jet Moto 2, under Resistance? As of writing, it's just an image and no text.
Why is the Killzone series still M.I.A? I still love playing splitscreen co-op of KZ3.
They did release the psp top down shooter a while back. So it's not completely forgotten.
After a big blunder, Xbox has all but confirmed that the incredible RPG Tales of Arise is finally making its Game Pass debut very soon.
That’s cool. I bought in on a sale for like $15, or $20. Was gonna play it, but new games keep coming out. Now FF7 Rebirth is about to come out, so again I will have to push this til later.
I did play Scarlet Nexus on Gamepass, so it doesn’t surprise me that they will release this there to get a bit more income.
I've been eyeing it up (and Scarlet Nexus) for ages so this is the perfect opportunity!
Currently in the second part of this game absolutely loving it. I'm shocked I have put over 70 hours into it. That doesn't happen often with me these days. So when it does it's pretty stand out to me especially since I rarely notice.
