The day has finally come, Xenoblade Chronicles X fans: the underrated Wii U classic is coming to Nintendo Switch.
]]>A speedrunner of Xenoblade Chronicles X managed to squeeze in one last world record before Nintendo shut down the Wii U's online servers, making it the last record ever.
]]>Released all the way back in 2011, there was a version of the Nintendo 3DS for everyone. Whether it was the slick and serious 3DS XL - which was a gorgeous piece of tech at the time - or the joyfully pick-up-and-play 2DS, the console marked an incredible and accessible generation of great games.
]]>Nintendo and developer, Monolith Soft, has announced that Xenoblade Chronicles 3 will be in receipt of the Future Redeemed DLC next week: April 25.
]]>The Nintendo Wii was a mainstream sensation from the moment it released, and likely still sits underneath the TV in many households that had never bought a games console before and haven't since.
]]>Ascension quests in Xenoblade Chronicles 3 are your way to hit class rank 20 and finally move past the initial barrier of class rank 10. They start unlocking fairly late in the story, starting in chapter five and six, and some have a rather confusing set of requirements to meet first. We've listed every ascension quest in Xenoblade Chronicles 3 below except the two New Game Plus classes (which we'll update with shortly).
]]>It’s been possible to play Nintendo Switch games on devices that aren’t the Nintendo Switch for a while now. This is nothing new. But, over the last couple of weeks, I really feel like I’ve sensed a shift in the scale of the conversation – and though it’s anecdotal, Xenoblade Chronicles 3 feels like a sea change.
]]>Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is finally out, and it turns out that you're probably going to be doing a lot more walking than in the last one.
]]>Picking the best arts in Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is a key part of building a well-rounded party, and, especially on higher difficulties, you need to put some careful thinking into how you build each class. Now that Xenoblade 3 has been out for a little while, we've updated with a few of the intermediate classes you find from chapter 2 onwards. As always, be aware there will be mild spoilers below.
]]>Xenoblade Chronicles 3 has been in the wild for a little while now, so we've updated our best Xenoblade Chronicles 3 classes with the remaining available classes you can unlock. That means there's quite a few spoilers from chapter 5 on, though we've avoided the major ones where possible - sticking to class names instead of the characters who unlock them.
]]>Heroes in Xenoblade Chronicles 3 are an essential part of combat planning, and now that the game's been out for a little while, we've updated with every remaining hero. The final two are quite spoilery, so be aware of that as you read on. While you don’t have to invite a hero to join your team, it’s a pretty good idea to do it anyways, especially if you’re playing on harder difficulties or taking on superbosses.
]]>For me, probably the most refreshing thing about modern Nintendo is its full-force embracing of the role-playing genre. No series represents this recently-adjusted stance more than Xenoblade – and its latest entry, Xenoblade Chronicles 3, proves that Nintendo’s recent interest and dedication to the genre is paying off dividends.
]]>Nintendo has delayed the collector's edition of Xenoblade Chronicles 3 to later this year in Europe.
]]>Nintendo has announced that it will be hosting a 20 minute long presentation all about the upcoming Xenoblade Chronicles 3.
]]>When it comes to JRPGs, there are few that are more unashamedly themselves than Xenoblade Chronicles. Released in 2010 as a final hurrah for the all but abandoned Wii, its colourful blend of MMO-lite combat, mechs, and endearingly earnest UK voice acting come together in a gaming experience like no other. Despite its humble Wii Origins, Xenoblade’s vast expanse and all-timer orchestral score create a grand sense of adventure that few of its genre mates have managed to top – even now, 12 years later.
]]>At the Nintendo Direct February 2022 showcase, the platform holder announced and Monolith Soft announced Xenoblade Chronicles 3, which will follow on from the events of both Xenoblade Chronicles and Xenoblade Chronicles 2.
