Tales of Arise Sells 3 Million Units
Fantasy role playing game Tales of Arise has sold three million copies ahead of arriving on the PlayStation Plus Games Catalog and Xbox Game Pass.
Publisher Bandai Namco announced the milestone on X/Twitter, sharing new artwork for the game in celebration. "Over three million of you have shown your support for Tales of Arise," it said. "Thank you for heling to keep the flame alive."
Tales of Arise launched in September 2021, meaning it's sold three million copies in two years and five months.

The number of players is likely on the verge of another rise, however, as Tales of Arise launched on both PlayStation Plus Extra and Premium and Xbox Game Pass on February 20.
Tales of Arise is the latest entry in the beloved RPG franchise, telling the story of a young man wielding the Blazing Sword and an untouchable girl fighting their oppressors. Players can explore the world of Dahna, where a mix of natural environments change in appearance based on the time of day.
In our 9/10 review, IGN said: "With an excellent story and cast and a reinvigorated combat system, Tales of Arise is the shot in the arm the long-running Tales RPG series needed to recapture its best moments."
