Posted on 1 week ago by Oni Dino(@Oni_Dino) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Monolith Soft tends to have a lot of work on its hands. Of course, the studio is well-known for its Xenoblade series. It also goes out of its way to help Nintendo on certain projects like Zelda: Breath of the Wild.
Monolith Soft definitely knows how to balance different games, and that experience certainly played a role over the past few years. Most recently, the developer completed Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition, which launches on May 29. Director Tetsuya Takahashi revealed in this week’s issue of Famitsu that planning started at the end of 2017. Also, since the studio was also making the Torna expansion for Xenoblade Chronicles 2 in addition to a new project, they were at one point “working on three different projects simultaneously and had to organize our 1st Production members between the three titles.”
Here’s the full excerpt from Famitsu, as translated by Nintendo Everything’s Oni_Dino:

Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition – Future Connected epilogue is 10-12 hours long, new tidbits from Monolith Soft
Posted on 2 weeks ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
This week’s issue of Famitsu contains an interview with Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition director Tetsuya Takahashi. In the magazine, it’s mentioned that the new Future Connected takes 10-12 hours to complete the story, though side content can raise that total to 20 hours.
Takahashi said that it would have been possible to extend the length of Future Connected had it been made DLC. However, the development of new titles would be affected if too many resources were used.
