Keen to continue your Tales of Arise adventure? The newly announced DLC Beyond the Dawn is a meaty offering that fans of roleplaying games might struggle to find time for, and it'll set you back $30. Nevertheless, when a break in the constant RPG onslaught inevitably appears, this one will be waiting, providing plenty of incentive to return to a world we thoroughly enjoyed, and digital preorders are now live.
Beyond the Dawn is a narrative expansion to the base game, taking place more than a year after the climactic events of the base game. As such, this one is not a standalone expansion, and How Long to Beat has the base game at 40 hours alone (critical path), so if you want to be up to date by the 9th of November (and you weren't already), you'd better get a wriggle on.
Are you down for Beyond the Dawn? Or do the caveats and admittedly significant time investment make this one a miss? Let us know in the comments section below.

Ah we'll see. First the base game needs to come down to 20 euros or below again.
I platinumed Tales of Arise so I will eventually get and play this DLC. Too many games out to play it at launch though. I won't be finished with Spiderman 2 and this comes out a week after Star Ocean 2 Remake 😟
I enjoyed the game but it didn't keep its tempo for me I'm hoping this dlc makes up for that
I'm about 25 hours into Arise and loving it. I hear online (including here) that it falls off in the second half, but it's been a worthwhile investment (and just gorgeous!) thus far.
Cool to see it get DLC, but a little odd that it's so late. Will be interested to see if reviewers think it's worth revisiting the characters and world of Arise or if the DLC is forgettable/skippable.
I don't like buying dlc, especially if it costs too much. I will still get this, but wait for a sale. If it was a standalone, I'd buy it at that price.
@AsterZero u know they have multiple teams they could be working on a tales game right now
The dlc is 30 dollars that is cheap for 20 hours of content
I'm getting it. But I agree with others. Arise is a low point in the series for me too. Berseria was just something else compared to it. Arise just feels like the cold steel 2 of tales of games. A story with potential but turns out weak. Not to mention all the missing charm from the previous titles like the skits.
Coool.that price is fine by me.word up son
I feel £25 for the expansion is reasonable for another 20+ hour worth of story content.
I put roughly 60 hours into the main game and got the Platinum so I'm looking forward to this.
That’s an insane price tag for something standalone. Doubling down on my earlier comments that I’ll be skipping this one. Two years later and doesn’t have any interaction with the main game? Pass

I liked arise but I don't know if I want to reacquire the game just to play the expansion.
@3Above There’s no rush. It’s far more satisfying to digest games at your own pace!
@Arnna I agree! The only thing I worry about is Spoilers. Twitter spoiled the ending of the Burning Shores dlc less than 24 hrs after it released 😪
