I CAN'T WAIT! This is EASILY my most anticipated game of 2022 right now!
@Vortexeo Same! And now we're not getting BotW's sequel, this is basically my only anticipated game this year but what a game! This is tied with Zelda for my favorite game series, and XC1 is my favorite game story ever. I can't wait for 3! 😁
Is this game out already?
@imedia That would depend on your timezone.
@Vortexeo we've added all the games to the correct series, so you should see them now: https://www.nintendolife.com/games/browse?title=series%3Axenoblade_chronicles
@NintendoLife Oh hey I didn't think you'd reply! Haha, thank you so much!
I just got this for £29:99 on Amazon it will be my first of this series I’m looking forward to it
https://gaminews.com/
This series of Xenoblade Chronicles is way better than the first game. There are way more features like class changes, cooking and crafting, but the cherry on top is the interlink ability that really surprised me.It deserves a 10/10 in my book.
This is one of the vest games i have ever played. This game was the first time i've ever cried playing a game. I love the characters soooo much. I wish i could play this game blind again to rexperience the emotions i had with this game. 10/10
