| Cook, Craft, and Battle in the Tales of Arise Demo Posted: 18 Aug 2021 12:00 PM PDT Summary
Get a glimpse at a story of liberation and encounter strategic gameplay scenarios with all six playable characters in the Tales of Arise demo, available now for Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, in this next chapter of Bandai Namco Entertainment's renowned Tales Of series. Here's a quick preview of what you'll see and experience in the demo's preview of the story and gameplay. Featuring a cast of six diverse characters as your playable party who each possess unique artes, perks, and gameplay elements for you to skillfully learn! Start the demo with any character and switch between different ones during combat to try different styles of gameplay or utilize a new combat element, Boost Attacks.  Boost Attacks are distinctive for each character and are helpful in battle to fight certain enemies that prove to be more challenging to conquer. To use Boost Attacks, characters must gradually build up the dedicated gauge in battle over time to deal a powerful blow to opponents. Each Boost Attack has a special advantage for each character:
Strategically use these Boost Attacks in battle to overcome powerful foes and find your path to victory. Combine attacks and inflict a significant amount of damage in battle, you might unlock special Boost Strikes to deal an immense blow to your enemies! When enemies are low on health and the battle is in your favor, team up with other party members to execute a devastating Boost Strike, which is especially helpful in encounters with giant enemies or bosses.  Giant enemies are high in difficulty but can also drop rare items and a lot of experience points for your party to make it worth your time! In the Tales of Arise demo, your strength will be tested against the Gigant, a giant zeugal. Pro tip: if you're having trouble winning against the Gigant, go to camp to cook a meal for buffs and recover your CP (Cure Points). You may notice a new meter in the demo for CP. These points can be used to recover the health of your party but use them carefully! CP does not restore over time; instead, rest at camps or inns, or use consumable items to restore them. To be in optimal condition for battle, make sure your CP is topped off before facing tough enemies. For longtime fans of the series, beloved features like cooking and crafting have been developed even further for a deeper experience! Gather fresh ingredients throughout the map to cook different meals at camp. Need a specific type of buff for an extra edge in combat? Cook certain meals and temporarily gain that buff to improve your abilities in battle — depending on who cooks, there may be additional effects! You might even unlock a unique skit with the right combination.  By gathering certain ores throughout the world of Tales of Arise, you can also craft different items and forge accessories in the demo. The grade of the ores effects the number of bonuses you'll receive, so keep an eye out for rare ores to craft even better accessories!
