It's almost time for E3 and Tales of Festival 2019, and the rumors are already leaking in. Can this hopefully be real...?
With E3 and Tales of Festival just around the corner, there have apparently been "E3 leaks" floating around the internet, as declared by a few people on Twitter. One of the leaks comes from this thread in 4Chan, showcasing a man in bulky armor and what seems to be greatly upgraded graphics. The data was allegedly mined from the Bandai Namco website.
The alleged name of the game is "Tales of Arise", and the game's alleged logo was also leaked on 4Chan:
Metadata allegedly points to the game being for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC. The game info was leaked online, as well:
Challenge the Fate That Binds You
On the planet Dahna, reverence has always been given to Rena, the planet in the sky, as a land of the righteous and divine. Stories handed down for generations became truth and masked reality for the people of Dahna.
For 300 years, Rena has ruled over Dahna, pillaging the planet of its resources and stripping people of their dignity and freedom.
Our tale begins with two people, born on different worlds, each looking to change their fate and create a new future.

Again, with E3 just next week, there are a LOT of alleged "leaks" that will be popping up online. While some of these may be real, a good number of these will be fake. For now, please take this rumor with a grain of salt UNTIL we get outright confirmation during E3 or Tales of Festival itself.
(Personally, the screenshots give the feel of Monster Hunter)
