The last update for Xenoblade Chronicles 2 added some new features like a New Game Plus mode along with various difficulty levels and other changes. Now, the next update for the game, version 1.3.1 is out and you can download it right away.

The new update  brings with it the addition of New Quests Pack 2 and brings five whole new quests that players can play through once they’ve downloaded this update. It’s certainly nice to see the developers still adding new content to the game at a steady rate as it offers incentives to players to continue sticking with the game.
