At the end of this week, Nintendo dropped the next big piece of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 DLC. Expansion Pass owners can get their hands on the Battle Challenge Mode Pack. Get a lengthy look at the DLC in the gameplay video below.

Update: Bumped to the top. Added in the patch notes below.


Original: The next big update for Xenoblade Chronicles 2 has arrived. Version 1.5.0 is live, along with the Challenge Battle Mode for Expansion Pass owners.

Challenge Battle Mode “gives players many chances to test their skills, plenty of loot to earn, and some minor story elements that show the characters in a new light”. You’ll be taking on hordes of enemies in Waves to complete each challenge. Additionally, Shulk and Fiora from the first Xenoblade Chronicles join the fight as Blades.

We’ll bring you the full patch notes for today’s update as soon as we have them.

Nintendo’s Treehouse stream at E3 is showing the new Challenge Mode DLC for Xenoblade Chronicles 2. This is the first footage we’re seeing of the content.

Interestingly, Nintendo has confirmed rumors of Shulk and Fiora appearing. In fact, both will be playable. Both act as Blades in the game.

You can pre-order Xenoblade Chronicles 2: Torna – Golden Country on Amazon here.

Torna – The Golden Country is DLC for Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Expansion Pass owners, but Nintendo has confirmed that a retail release is also happening. It does not include the main game, and it will only include a download code for the Expansion Pass.

Xenoblade Chronicles 2: Torna – The Golden Country launches for Season Pass owners on September 14. The retail version will be offered on September 21.
