Before you play

Your game version

If game ownership is required, check that your store version and edition match the provider listing. Steam / PC features do not confirm support on every cloud service.

Your region

Check availability in your country before subscribing. Global source scope does not guarantee access in every country; a regional listing applies only to its recorded region.

Your subscription

Check the required service plan and whether the game is included or must be purchased separately. A free-to-play game may still require a cloud gaming subscription.

About this game

When we die, it’s said that our life flashes before our eyes. Arise is a poetic game that takes this idea and runs with it. You’ll set off on a journey through major events in the life of our heroes: their joys and their suffering. Within a somewhat mystical and supernatural atmosphere, you’ll explore polished environments to a stirring soundtrack. This is a game that will move you to tears!
