Here’s the tweet showing off the Tales of Arise characters. From left to right, Law, Rinwell, Alphen, Dohalim, Kisara, and Shionne are shown.

The Minoru Iwamoto art might look familiar. Iwamoto’s acted as character designer for multiple entries in the series. Aside from Tales of Arise, both Tales of Zestiria and Tales of Berseria were his most recent titles.
Previously, Bandai Namco showed Iwamoto’s step-by-step process to create the Tales of Arise mascot, Hootle.
