Today Bandai Namco hosted a livestream from Tokyo Game Show 2021 focusing on Tales of Arise and producer Yusuke Tomizawa had announcements in store for the fans.
We learn that an update and free DLC will be released on October 7 including new difficulty levels. Easiest and Unknown will be respectively easier and harder than what the game included at launch.
Three different kinds of special battles will let you fight new enemies and win special weapons.
On top of that, a paid DLC to be also released on October 7 will bring forth a crossover with Sword Art Online Alicization Lycoris. It’ll cost 1,760 yen, which approximately translates into $16.
Not only the DLC will include Kirito and Asuna’s costumes for Alphen, Shionne, and Law and Kirito’s weapon. The two heroes of SAO will also appear in a special mission and players will be able to fight them. They’ll even have a special co-op mystic arte with Alphen.
Incidentally, we also learned that Kotobukiya will produce new scale figures for Alphen and Rinwell.
