We’ve been getting a lot of news about Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition, and this week in particular. A bunch of footage appeared online that really gave us a good look at how the Switch release is shaping up.

One of the things we heard about recently is that all voice actors have returned for Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition. That doesn’t just go for the main game – which was more or less a known factor since the original announcement – but also the brand new Future Connected epilogue.

That’s not the only bit of news we have regarding voice acting. As revealed in a video posted by RogersBase this week, a Nintendo Treehouse rep revealed that Monolith Soft redid the lip syncing. Xenoblade Chronicles is already highly regarded for its voice acting, so this should only make the experience even better.

Thanks to Jake for the tip.
