Set before the base game’s events, it focuses on Matthew, who teams with A to look for his sister, Na’el.

Of course, some will recognize the threat of Moebius against the world and how those in Swordmarch struggle to oppose them. Other characters who join the two include Shulk and Rex from Xenoblade Chronicles 1 and 2, as they battle against familiar foes like Z and N. There are also new mechanics like Union Combos and classes like the Monado Fencer.

If it’s anything like Xenoblade Chronicles 2: Torna ~ The Golden Country, Xenoblade Chronicles 3: Future Redeemed should be a meaty new expansion for players with new side quests, enemies, bosses, and more. Head here for more details on Ouroboros and here for other new characters like Nikol and Glimmer. Stay tuned for future updates.

The hype train is still going, though, as the official Twitter account shared details (translation via Siliconera) on two new characters – Nikol and Glimmer. Nikol is a Machinist and part of Keves, serving as a Defender and using a custom weapon, Variable Backpack.

Her Talent Art is Total Destruction – when active, it deals damage to enemies that ignores defenses and reduces damage to the party. Glimmer is a Healer whose class seems to be called “Flame Performer.” Her staff is also a musical instrument, with the songs providing buffs to party members. When Roaring Flame Heaven Performance, her Talent Art, hits enemies, allies recover health.

A recent clip also showcased some Chain Attack gameplay, showcasing the TP of characters like Rex and Shulk. The Union Combo, a new double-team attack, can end the Chain Attack and deal massive damage. Stay tuned for more details on the expansion en route to its launch.

Set before the base game’s events, it features a new cast of characters and serves to connect all three games.

Several new details and gameplay clips have been shared on the XenobladeJP Twitter, outlining what players can expect (translations via DeepL). The usual arrangement of Attackers, Defenders and Healers remains. Characters can use Ouroboros Power, stronger than regular Arts, and fuse it with other Arts for more effects.

There’s also the new Union Combo, which sees two characters combining their abilities in one attack. It’s performed by using a Special Move on a “Rising Enemy,” and using Arts will regen Special Moves quicker. You can trigger effects like Smash, Burst or Blow, depending on the characters used. They’ll also get an Awakening Buff, encouraging even more aggression.

We also see a new character, Godou, and his grandchildren, Matthew and Na’el. Matthew is a Martial Artist who uses the Ouroboros Knuckle as an Attacker. His Talent Art is Gigantic Beat, which recovers 50 percent of all Arts cast if it hits. There’s also Ai, a Monado Fencer who wields, well, the Mondao.

She’s an offensive Healer who uses the Talent Art, Vision, to stop attacks on the party or unleash Vanishing End to strike all enemies. Another tweet shows a familiar location that Matthew and his friends are running through.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3: Future Redeemed launches on April 25th for Nintendo Switch. Stay tuned for more details in the meantime.

The story-focused expansion finally has a title – Future Redeemed. Check out the latest trailer below.

Tying all three games together, it features a new story set before the third game with new heroes and some familiar figures (with Shulk and Rex from Xenoblade Chronicles 1 and 2 already teased). It also adds new mechanics, like the Unity Combo, allowing two characters to strike together.

Nintendo has also announced new Noah and Mio amiibo figures, with more details later. In the meantime, a two-pack amiibo bundle with Pyra and Mythra from Xenoblade Chronicles 2 will release on July 21st. Scanning Pyra changes Noah’s sword to resemble her Aegis Sword, while Mythra gives it the appearance of her Aegis Sword

Fans who can’t get the amiibos shouldn’t worry, as a patch will release later to unlock the skins for all players (after fulfilling a condition, of course). Stay tuned for more details on Future Redeemed in the coming week. Listen to the sweet battle theme below in the meantime.
