For better or worse, Tales of Arise marked a new beginning for the JRPG series developed by Bandai Namco. Toning down the marked anime feel that has always been part of the franchise while attempting to retain its spirit, the latest entry in the series managed to become quite popular, despite some issues here and there that do bring the experience down, such as a rushed final segment of the story. Still, the experience felt complete for the most part, and the developers stated multiple times that no DLC expansion would ever be released for it.
