Xenoblade Chronicles 3 spoilers

It’s been a while since the release of Xenoblade Chronicles 3, and even though the game is massive, some of us already finished the experience. As it is with a JRPG like this, there’s usually a lot to talk about with regard to the story, exploration, combat and more.

That’s why today’s video is actually a – very long – discussion about Xenoblade Chronicles 3, full of spoilers. If you already played it, feel free to check the video down below and share your own opinions about the game.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 update 1.1.1

Original: A new 1.1.1 update has just released for Xenoblade Chronicles 3, and it fixes quite a few of the game’s more recently discovered bugs and glitches. Notably, it removes a softlock possible by beating a specific enemy early, fixes the cooking mechanic to make it functional again and makes certain previously unobtainable items now normally obtainable.

Here are the full patch notes for Xenoblade Chronicles 3’s version 1.1.1 update:

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 released a little over a month ago to near-universal acclaim. A part of the game that received a significant amount of praise was the characters and how well they were portrayed by their respective voice actors.

This praise from fans has not gone unnoticed, with several of the game’s voice actors having thanked the community for the compliments. Among these is Harry McEntire, the voice actor for main protagonist Noah, who has recently returned to Twitter to thank fans for their “outpouring of love” as a result of his performance.

In an email sent to customers in Japan, Nintendo shared a message from Monolith Soft’s Tetsuya Takahashi, the senior director of Xenoblade Chronicles 3.

We’ve translated the full note below, which includes another tease about plans for the future. There’s just a slight story spoiler about the overall series, so keep that in mind before proceeding.

Based on the latest data from GfK, Xenoblade Chronicles 3 has seen the series’ biggest launch in the UK thus far.

The game has taken the place of the last record holder, Xenoblade Chronicles 2. Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition follows in third.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Noah

Ahead of Xenoblade Chronicles 3’s imminent launch, Nintendo has put out a character trailer focusing on Noah.

As previously detailed, he’s an off-seer from Keves. Nintendo notes that “Noah’s fate is entwined with another whose aid will be instrumental in saving Aionios.”

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 future

We already heard from Monolith Soft’s Tetsuya Takahashi that Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is the “culmination” of the series and “summary for moving on to the next step”. However, on Nintendo’s side, producer and director Genki Yokota has stated that he wants to keep the series “going as long as possible”.

That comment came about in the final section of Nintendo’s official interview regarding Xenoblade Chronicles 3. Speaking about the future, Takahashi and Yokota said:

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 story DLC scope

Monolith Soft has teased the scope of the story DLC for Xenoblade Chronicles 3.

According to Nintendo’s Genki Yokota, “we are thinking of making its volume of content as large as Xenoblade Chronicles 2: Torna – The Golden Country.” He would later say in the same interview that the DLC “will be quite a high volume of content that will not let you down” when it comes to volume.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 content

The developers of Xenoblade Chronicles 3 have weighed in on the huge amount of content that the RPG offers. Monolith Soft’s Tetsuya Takahashi and Koh Kojima, along with Nintendo’s Genki Yokota, weighed in on the topic.

Yokota said at one point that “the amount of content exceeds that of the first and second titles.” Additionally, Kojima mentioned that “the total walkable area in this game is over five times larger than in the second title.”
