Xenoblade Chronicles 3: Future Redeemed και ότι ξέρουμε για αυτό

Πριν μερικές μέρες η Nintendo κυκλοφόρησε ξαφνικά ένα βίντεο και την ημερομηνία για το Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Expansion Pass Wave 4. Σε μία εβδομάδα από την ανακοίνωση στις 26.4 κυκλοφορεί το νέο story dlc με τίτλο Future Redeemed. Απότι φαίνεται η ιστορία θα είναι prequel του Xenoblade Chronicles 3 όπως ήταν το Torna ~ The Golden Country για το 2ο. Περιμένουμε να είναι ένα αρκετά χορταστικό dlc σε μέγεθος και ανάπτυξη όπως ένα κανονικό παιχνίδι κάτι που είδαμε να γίνεται με το Torna. Το Torna ~ The Golden Country ήταν 25-40 ώρες παιχνίδι με δικούς του νέους μηχανισμούς.

Παράλληλα στην Ιαπωνία η Nintendo δημιούργησε μια σελίδα για το Future Redeemed με επιπλέον πληροφορίες τις οποίες συλλέξαμε σε αυτό το άρθρο.

Ιστορία

Keves and Agnus, two warring countries locked in an endless battle.

Nikol, a soldier from Keves, and Glimmer, a soldier from Agnus, confront each others on the battlefield. As they fight for their lives, a young man intervenes.

“Neither of you is the real enemy.”

Matthew, from the City, tells the Nikol and Glimmer they have no reason to fight each others, and that the real ennemy is Moebius.

Those who discovered the truth about the world are now ready to fight for their destiny.

Χαρακτήρες

Matthew (voiced by Junya Enoki in Japanese) is a young man who belongs to the City, an organisation that opposes Moebius. A rather straightforward person with a caring personality who’s looking for his sister, Na’el, who has gone missing. His Blade is special: it was given to him by his grandfather, Ghondor. It has a special function: it can serve as an Ouroboros Stone, though it’s more limited than the real deal.

A (voiced by Rina Satou in Japanese) wields a slim red sword, and works with Matthew. She’s a rather composed person who always thinks things through carefully. She’s the perfect partner for Matthew, who tends to act first and think later! In fact, she often scolds him for rushing on ahead without thinking. They work surprisingly well together, don’t you think?

Nikol (voiced by Kisamu Ono in Japanese) is a soldier from Keves, and a great mechanic. A calm and reserved person who always get carried away whenever he starts talking about machines. He fights using not a Blade, but a set of mechanical arms. Despite hailing from Keves, Nikol doesn’t really like fighting at all…
Glimmer (voiced by Shino Shimoji in Japanese) is a soldier from Agnus, who fights using a cane. A strong-willed woman who can be pretty harsh with others. Unable to accept the truth of the world, she goes and act on her own…

Glimmer leads a team of Agnian soldiers, and ends up confronting Nikol on the battlefield.

Shulk (voiced by Shintarou Asanuma in Japanese) is a kind-hearted man wielding a familiar red sword. He lost his right arm in some past battle, and replaced it with a prosthethic one. He can only use his left hand to wield his large sword. In the video below, we can see Shulk protecting Glimmer. Could he truly be THE Shulk?

Rex (voiced by Hiro Shimoni in Japanese) is an imposing man wielding not one, but two massive swords. He’s a lively and frank person, and together with Shulk, he’s at the head of an organisation called Liberator. He lost his left eye during a past battle. In the video below, we can see Rex jumping in to protect Nikol and the others. Rex sure grew up into a fine, cool man!

Na’el (voiced by Akari Kitou in Japanese) is Matthew’s little sister. A king woman who takes care of the children of the City. She went missing following a certain event… As you can see in the video below, Na’el cares about the children more than anything else, and is exceedingly kind.

???: a mysterious man who appears in front of Shulk and Rex. He certainly looks familiar, but who is he?
Ghondor (voiced by Bin Shimada in Japanese). He’s Matthew and Na’el’s grandfather. He was a driving force behind the creation of the City, which is why everyone trust him. Ghondor took great care of his two grandchildren, and is more than ready to fight.

Battle System

Ouroboros Power: more powerful than regular Arts. Can be “fused” with regular Arts to obtain various effects (which kind of effects you get depends on the combination of Ouroboros Power and Arts). They also grant some sort of aura. They can be assigned to the directional buttons (left side of the screen)

Unity Combo: Unity is a tag-team made of two characters. By working together, those two characters can unleash powerful combo attacks known as Unity Combos. Using one such combo boosts your stats by having the characters enter the Awakened state. The type of Attack you can unleash, its range, its powers, and the effects it grants depend on the characters that make up the Unity. To trigger a Unity Combo, you first need to get in the Rising state, and then hit an enemy with a special move. Using regular Arts allows you to refill the gauge for special moves. Unity Combos are quite handy when dealing with tough monsters, as they always deal Smash, Burst, or Blowdown.

Classes

Martial Artist (Matthew). Weapon: Ouroboros Knuckles. Battle role: Attacker. A class to crush the enemy with consecutive hits, without giving them a chance to fight back. Its Talent Art is Gigantic Beat, which grants 50% recharge for all Arts when it lands.

Monado Fencer (A). Weapon: Monado. Battle role: Healer. An offensive healer who hunts down enemies with sharp slashes. Its Talent Art is Vision, which prevents enemies from attacking the party for a certain amount of time. Also, while Vision is active, you can unleash “Vanishing End”, which hits all enemies at once!
