The update will include an Easy Mode for Tiger! Tiger!, mini-map improvements, more items for the Expansion Pass, bug fixes and quality-of-life changes.

For example, a feature that allows the player to view their map while selecting a place to fast travel.
Tetsuya Takahashi reflects on the art of Xenoblade Chronicles 2

Included in the limited editions for Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is a sizable art book. Open it up and one of the first things you’ll see is a lengthy message from Tetsuya Takahashi, the game’s director.
The message is rather interesting. At one point for example, Takahashi reveals that for the first Xenoblade Chronicles, the art for character designs “simply didn’t exist”. The team only had “costume designs for the clothing the characters wore.” For Xenoblade Chronicles 2, this was addressed and dedicated artists were brought on board.
