Nintendo has updated the Japanese official website for Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition with details on the additional scenario “Future Connected.”
Get the details below.
Extra Story
One year has passed since the final battle.
The world is at peace, each race has joined hands, and restoration was underway.
In the midst of all that—.
Shulk suggests to Melia that they search for the Imperial Capital Alcamoth, which had gone missing.
The two board the airship Junks with their sights set on the Imperial Capital, but the ship is suddenly attacked by a mysterious bombardment.
And Junks crash-lands in a place called “Bionis’ Shoulder.”
New World
A further expanded world.
The setting of this new adventure is “Bionis’ Shoulder,” which you never visit in the main story. It is on the left shoulder of Bionis, a suspended mass made of floating minerals.
New Characters
The Nopon Kino and Nene will become your companions on Bionis’ Shoulder. Although young, their strength in battle is fully-matured.
—Kino
He is looking for his father and aims to become a “hero.” He is also a bit shy. What abilities does the Ether Gun given to him by his father possess…?
—Nene
A reliable Nopon who looks after Kino like a mother. While she is cute on the outside, she is quite the power-type in battle.
Like the main story, various strong enemies await Shulk and company on the field. Since Shulk has lost his ability to see “visions of the future,” he must be more cautious than ever when facing an enemy and think carefully about how to approach battle.
The monster in the black mist is called the “Mist Beast” (official English name TBA). Not only does the monster itself possess potent strength, its energy wave is able to attract nearby enemies to attack Shulk and company.
The “Nopongers” (official English name TBA) are a team of Nopon surveyors scattered across various places on Bionis’ Shoulder. They will join you as allies if you complete their requests, supporting you in battle by using their respective special skills as they please. They can also cooperate with Shulk to unleash powerful special attacks.
Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition is due out on May 29. Read more about the game here. Watch an overview trailer here.
