The Beyond the Dawn Edition bundles the original Tales of Arise with its downloadable content, offering Switch 2 owners a consolidated package of the 2021 JRPG.
Background and platform history
Tales of Arise was developed by Bandai Namco Studios and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment, launching on September 10, 2021, for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
The title revitalized the long-running Tales series with a redesigned combat system and cinematic presentation and has since been supported with post-launch downloadable content.
The newly announced Beyond the Dawn Edition brings that content to Nintendo's next-generation hardware.
What Bandai Namco says
In its announcement, Bandai Namco described the new release as “the base game plus the downloadable content,” confirming that Beyond the Dawn Edition packages the original game together with the DLC previously released for other platforms.
The company also debuted an updated trailer to showcase key story moments and combat highlights tailored for the Switch 2 presentation.
Release details and what to expect
The Beyond the Dawn Edition is slated to release on Nintendo Switch 2 on May 22.
Bandai Namco’s trailer is the primary promotional material currently available; players interested in the Switch version should watch the trailer for visual comparisons and the studio’s note about included content.
Tales of Arise’s original launch across PlayStation, Xbox, and PC established it as one of Bandai Namco’s major RPG releases of the generation, and this edition expands the game’s availability to Nintendo’s latest hardware.
For readers tracking platform releases or planning purchases, this edition consolidates the base game and its DLC into a single release for Nintendo Switch 2.
