Nintendo has revealed details about the newest additions to Xenoblade Chronicles 3 as part of its expansion pass. Available on February 15, volume 3 of the Xenoblade Chronicles 3 expansion pass brings with it a new character, along with new character outfits, and a Challenge Battle mode.

The new character joining the group is Masha, the self-proclaimed Lapidarist extraordinaire. Masha can make use of special ore to craft accessories that can benefit your party in various ways.

The Challenge Battles coming to the game as part of the expansion pass feature roguelike elements. Players select a single character to then take on wave after wave of progressively more powerful enemies. Every victory gets the player new heroes and special abilities. Players can also earn special in-game outfits as rewards for succeeding in Challenge Battles.

Nintendo also gave us a glimpse of what we can expect in volume 4 of the Xenoblade Chronicles 3 expansion pass, which seems to be much more story-focused.
