We got the reveal for Xenoblade Chronicles 3 a few months ago, but even by then we didn’t have a solid release date. Some speculated that we could get the game by September, but it’s been announced that we’ll actually be getting the next title a lot earlier.
Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is now set to release for the Nintendo Switch on July 9. Watch this:
The trailer actually gives us a new look at the characters’ ‘Ouroboros’ forms, which look to be a cross between Pacific Rim and Digimon. Here’s their description from the trailer:
Why are Noah and his friends being pursued as “monsters” by the forces of the two nations they hail from? Witness the introduction of the mighty Ouroboros forms, the oversized entities your party can become during battle in this epic continuation of the Xenoblade Chronicles series.
Like I said, the game was originally set to come out in September, but it’s great that Nintendo has announced that it will be coming out two months earlier. While the Xenoblade titles haven’t been connected before, it has been confirmed that this game will bring together the stories of both previous entries in the IP. Let’s hope it doesn’t disappoint.
