Xenoblade Chronicles 2 update out now (version 1.1.1)
Update: Full patch notes added below.
Original: Xenoblade Chronicles 2’s newest update is here. Nintendo just issued version 1.1.1 for all players.
We’re still waiting on the patch notes, but Nintendo did previously explain what’s covered in the update. It features an easy mode for Tiger! Tiger!, map improvements, and more.
Here’s the lowdown from director Tetsuya Takahashi:
In addition to some bug fixes, we will address the following points:
– An easy mode will be added to Tiger! Tiger!
– When you press the X button, the Skip Travel screen will open the map to your current location. We hope this will make it easier to spot Skip Travel locations and Salvage Points on the map.
– An additional 1:1 zoom on the mini map will be displayed by pressing the L Stick. This will allow improved visibility of your surroundings and make it easier to check quest locations.
