Bandai Namco Entertainment have released a small teaser trailer for Tales of Arise, along with revealing players will be collecting owls.
As previously reported, the game takes place on the world of Dahna, where they had worshiped the nearby planet of Rena for 300 years. This reverence lead to the people of that world exploiting Dahna for resources and servitude. The ever crumbling “peace” between the two will soon be exploited by dark forces.
In addition, the recent character trailer for Rinwell shows her with a small owl, Hootle, as a companion. Players will come across plenty more, as a collectable side-quest in the game.
The game’s official Twitter account has revealed players will find owls across the world. Hootle can help you find these well-dressed avians, who return to the village of the Owl King. Players are promised special rewards for spreading the word to the birds
Hootle is not the only owl in the expansive world of #TalesOfArise.
