Bandai Namco has confirmed the arrival of Tales of Arise: Beyond the Dawn Edition on Nintendo Switch 2, and released a new launch trailer ahead of the edition’s release on Friday, May 22.
The package brings the studio’s 2021 JRPG to Nintendo’s next-generation handheld-console hybrid, marking an expanded platform presence for the critically acclaimed title.
Tales of Arise was originally developed by Bandai Namco Studios and first released in September 2021 for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC.
The game received praise for its combat, character-driven narrative, and upgraded presentation compared with earlier entries in the long-running Tales series.
The Beyond the Dawn Edition packages the core game with additional content and optimizations targeted at the Switch 2 hardware.
Narrative recap (rewritten): For three centuries, the technologically advanced Renan state of Rena has dominated the resource-rich world of Dahna, exploiting its people and land.
Tales of Arise follows two protagonists from opposite worlds who join forces to resist that oppression and pursue a different future.
After the central conflict, protagonist Alphen and his allies encounter Nazamil, a girl born to a Renan lord and a Dahnan woman; the story teases a renewed journey as the party confronts a destiny entwined with a mysterious curse.
Bandai Namco’s launch trailer for the Beyond the Dawn Edition highlights the game’s cinematic set pieces, its party-based combat, and a refreshed presentation suited to the Switch 2’s capabilities.
The studio published the trailer alongside platform and release information; footage emphasizes character dynamics and combat systems that helped the title earn strong review scores at launch.
For readers looking to purchase, the Beyond the Dawn Edition will appear on Nintendo’s eShop for Switch 2 on release day.
Bandai Namco has distributed Tales of Arise across multiple platforms since 2021, and this Switch 2 edition continues the company’s effort to make the game available to a broader audience.
