Gameplay [edit]

Similar to previous games, the actor controls a master grapheme out of a party of 3.[1] [two] [3] The game employs an open world design, with a day-and-dark time cycle that often affects in-game events, including quests, enemy force, and item availability. Unlike the ii previous titles which consisted of a cohesive open up world through which player could journeying uninterrupted, the game takes identify on several lands, between whom the actor travels via a fast travel option.[4]

Different from prior titles, characters in the party too control boosted beings known every bit Blades. Each character can only have iii Blades active at a time, which determines the character's class, between offensive attacker, healer or defensive tanks.[five] The game'southward Blades and skills are based on eight elements: burn down, water, wind, ice, electric, earth, light and dark.[6] [5] There are a total of 40 distinctly unique "rare" Blades to collect throughout the base game with an boosted 11 being obtainable either through downloadable content or New Game Plus in afterwards patches. Most of the game's Blades are not a role of the primary story, and can be assigned to any Commuter; among those is KOS-MOS from the Xeno sub-series Xenosaga.[seven]

Battle arrangement [edit]

Xenoblade Chronicles two has an action-based battle system, where the player manually moves the electric current pb character in real-time, and party members will "auto-assault" when enemies enter their attack radius.[8] Each character has skills chosen "Arts", that can be used to inflict status effects.[8] Both party members and enemies have a finite amount of health points, and attacks deplete this value. Combat is won when all enemies lose their HP, but the game is lost if the player's graphic symbol loses all their HP and has no means of being revived. Health may be restored past the player by using healing Arts in battle, or the actor may permit characters' HP regenerate automatically outside of battle. Winning battles earns the player experience points, which allows the characters to grow stronger by leveling upwardly and learning new Arts.[8] Using Arts repeatedly allows use of special moves. Doing these special moves in the correct order creates a Blade combo, which does large amounts of damage and seals a form of damage against the enemy.[8]

A "Political party Gauge" slowly fills as party members successfully state hits on the enemy players, and filling the gauge allows the player to chain multiple attacks together, for actress impairment.[8] Using a full Party Gauge allows the histrion to apply all of the Blades to do a Chain Attack, which does extra damage as it destroys previously created seals.[8] The iii-tiered judge gradually depletes exterior of battle, and one tier is needed to either revive characters or alert a teammate to a vision. When all three tiers are total, the political party tin execute a concatenation attack.[8] All party members take an "aggro ring" around them likewise; the more actions a graphic symbol performs, the larger it grows. Larger aggro rings lead enemies to focus their efforts on that respective character, leading to a strategic attribute of luring and diverting attention of enemies.[8]

Development [edit]

The game was developed for the Nintendo Switch past Monolith Soft and is the third entry in their Xenoblade Chronicles series, post-obit the original Xenoblade Chronicles and Xenoblade Chronicles X.[9] Plans for the game began in July 2014, during the latter half of evolution of Xenoblade Chronicles X.[10] While the original Xenoblade Chronicles followed the typical structure of a general story-driven JRPG, Xenoblade Chronicles Ten received far less emphasis on story, and was organized in more of a mission-based structure, focused primarily on exploring the game's massive open world.[9] The development team were unhappy upon hearing the fanbase complain about the changes, and started piece of work on another story-driven title.[10] Because the gameplay was more of a continuation of the commencement game, they decided to championship it Xenoblade Chronicles 2.[10] Xenoblade Chronicles 2 took shorter to develop than previous games, although development was difficult in the beginning due to a lack of finalization of the Switch's technical specifications.[10] The compages of Xenoblade Chronicles X was used for Xenoblade Chronicles 2 to speed up evolution.[11] [12] Another motivating cistron was the agreement made by the team with Nintendo specifically to deliver the game early in the Nintendo Switch's lifecycle.[11]

Ane of Monolith Soft's objectives for the game was to requite the characters a wider range of facial expressions compared to by Xenoblade titles. The lead grapheme designer was Masatsugu Saito, who was designing characters for a video game for the offset fourth dimension.[12] The developers chose him to give the protagonists a more than expressive anime-like fine art mode than prior Xenoblade entries, which featured a more realistic blazon of modeling that they plant a bit besides stiff.[ix] [13] Square Enix creative person Tetsuya Nomura was responsible for the characters within the Torna arrangement.[xi] [14] Takahashi had wanted to work with Nomura, but as he was busy with other games at Foursquare Enix, he hesitantly approached the visitor with the hopes of letting him work equally a guest creative person. To Takahashi's surprise, they accepted the negotiation. Other guest artists also contributed, such as Xeno series veterans Kunihiko Tanaka and Soraya Saga, who designed some of the game's Blades, weapon-similar life forms.[15] [16] [17] Tanaka designed a bract of KOS-MOS, one of the protagonists of the Xenosaga trilogy.[xviii] The game's story was conceived past Takahashi, with assist from screenwriters Yuichiro Takeda and Kazuho Hyodo.[19] Takeda, who also worked as a writer on the last 2 Xenoblade games, stated that the writing techniques and workflow for Xenoblade Chronicles ii was similar to that of a movie.[19] While information technology is a sequel to Xenoblade Chronicles, it features a new world and bandage of characters.[20]

Music [edit]

The game's original score was written by Yasunori Mitsuda, Kenji Hiramatsu, and Manami Kiyota and the duo of ACE (Tomori Kudo and Hiroyo Yamanaka).[21] Mitsuda, who was also in charge of the audio budget, musician booking, schedule management, and canvas music proofreading, was offset invited to the project by Takahashi in December 2014.[22] [23] Throughout the following year, Mitsuda and Takahashi held numerous meetings discussing the overall direction of the music, eventually inviting musical group ACE and Kenji Hiramatsu, who had also worked on the first Xenoblade Chronicles.[23] At the meetings, each composer's contribution to the soundtrack was decided, with ACE primarily handling the field music, and Hiramatsu handling the boxing music.[10] [23] According to Mitsuda, it was washed in a way that would satisfy the fans, as they did not want to "ruin the image" that was ready by the starting time Xenoblade Chronicles.[23] With contributions from over 300 total musicians and 20,000 sheets worth of music, Mitsuda considered it the largest project he had always worked on, with files and data from Pro Tools, his music production software, surpassing one terabyte in size.[22] [24] Overall, in that location were approximately 120 tracks recorded for the game, with around 25 of them being from Mitsuda.[10]

The soundtrack features performances from the Slovakian Bratislava Symphony Choir, as well every bit the Irish chamber choir Anúna.[23] [25] [26] Mitsuda, who had always wanted to work with Anúna subsequently condign a fan in the 1990s, claimed that their performances for the game made him cry.[23] Two tracks, including the ending theme written past Mitsuda, were sung past Jennifer Bird of the English acoustic duo Tomorrow Bird. Before recording, Mitsuda and Bird corresponded so that she could properly convey the characters' emotions through her singing. While recording, Bird was able to improvise melodic elements of her singing, something that did not usually happen with Mitsuda's arrangements.[27]

Release [edit]

The game was appear in Jan 2017 as part of Nintendo'southward detailed reveal of the Nintendo Switch, with a gameplay trailer being released on the same day.[1] [28] [29] Like to the original Xenoblade, the title was announced as Xenoblade ii in Nippon, but had Chronicles added to its name in English-speaking regions.[thirty] The game was also a part of Nintendo'due south presentation at E3 2017, where it was reconfirmed for release by the stop of 2017.[31]

Similar the original Xenoblade Chronicles, Nintendo's European division took up the reins for the English localization, who regularly communicated with Nintendo'due south Japanese and American divisions about decisions that could prove controversial, something that was previously an upshot with Xenoblade Chronicles X.[32] Unlike the first 2 games, the localization procedure took identify during development rather than after and was prepare in time for a simultaneous worldwide launch on December one, 2017.[33] Days before the game's launch, a promotional music video featuring a song runway from the game by Mitsuda, "Shadow of the Lowlands", was uploaded onto Nintendo's official YouTube accounts.[34] The video features a performance by Anúna, and was filmed and directed by Michael McGlynn, leader of the group.[34] An official soundtrack, consisting of over a hundred tracks, was released in both physical and digital formats on May 23, 2018.[35] [36] Additional content was added through an expansion pass which released through 2018. Added content includes new items, quests, recruitable Blades, and a challenge boxing manner.[37] [38] New story-based content, Xenoblade Chronicles ii: Torna – The Gilt Country, was released digitally as part of the expansion laissez passer on September fourteen, 2018, and as a standalone retail release a week later.[39]

A costume based on Rex was added to The Legend of Zelda: Jiff of the Wild a few weeks ahead of the game's launch.[40] Characters from Xenoblade Chronicles 2 were considered for a position as a playable fighter in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate 's initial roster, but they were ultimately passed over due to poor timing, as according to director Masahiro Sakurai the game was appear to the public far too late in the development of Ultimate.[41] Pyra and Mythra were eventually added to the roster as a 2-in-ane fighter via downloadable content in March 2021, along with a new stage and several music tracks.[42] While Male monarch was considered, Sakurai accounted information technology unfeasible to control both of them at the same time, likening the state of affairs to that of the Ice Climbers, so he was reduced to supportive roles in Pyra and Mythra's moveset.[43]

Reception [edit]

Pre-launch [edit]

Some critics called the initial reveal of the game "unexpected",[13] [29] with Jeremy Parish of USGamer favorably compared it to Chrono Cross.[44] At the Gamescom event in Baronial 2017, the game received positive early hands-on impressions from gaming sites, being praised for its streamlined combat system and environments.[45] [46]

Post-launch [edit]

John Rairdin of Nintendo World Study considered the game "i of the finest JRPGs of the generation and possibly of all time" and was highly praising the music, "diverse world", "fresh and engaging combat", and "thrilling storyline".[61] He likewise expressed doubt that there would exist a improve JRPG for the Switch.[62] Game Revolution 's Jason Faulkner chosen the game "a joy to review", stating that it was "full of wonder, exploration, and graphic symbol".[55] Hiroshi Noguchi writing for IGN Japan gave a very positive review, stating that it "offers a timeless tale of risk and an incredibly deep battle system."[63] Alex Fuller for RPGamer was enthusiastically supportive of the game, saying "2017 has been one of the greatest years in RPG history; Xenoblade Chronicles ii caps that off in mesmerising fashion past being 1 of the finest titles of the twelvemonth".[64]

Nadia Oxford of USgamer stated that Xenoblade Chronicles 2 "captures nearly everything that made the first game great, borrows the best elements from Chronicles X, and so improves on much of it. Though Blades alter up how you fight in Chronicles ii, the game spills over with the traits that brand the first Chronicles game a stand-out feel. More story, more than enemies to bit with, more landscapes to tread across. Chronicles ii is a dialogue-heavy game, but there are many points where Monolith Soft lets its environments characterize the seriousness of Alrest's plight."[58] She highly praised the game's story, stating "The narrative explores patriotism, war, environmental turn down, refugees, and examines the little people who get caught in the crush when big powers chip with one another. There are also a number of moral and philosophical questions raised nearly Blades [...] Are Blades humanity's partners, or their slaves?"[58] GamesTM called the game the "apex of open-earth design", and the exploration made upwardly for whatsoever minor problems.[54]

Leif Johnson of IGN praised the game and called it a "standout RPG that manages to proceed its story, combat, and exploration interesting over the grade of at to the lowest degree 70 hours of hazard through an impressively varied and rich world", though conceded a few frustrations with the game, including a disruptive minimap that sometimes led to the reviewer getting lost.[59] Shubhankar Parijat of GamingBolt called it ""A must-play for all Nintendo Switch owners"" and "i of the best JRPGs of this generation" and calling its globe "vast and beautiful", its story "circuitous and layered", and its gainsay "intricate and addictive", while also noting that the game was occasionally held back by "obtuse blueprint choices" and "a simple lack of smooth".[65]

Still, the game did have its criticisms. Jason Schreier of Kotaku, who had besides disliked the original Xenoblade Chronicles, gave a largely negative review, calling the game "irksome, dreary, overly complicated, and unconcerned with wasting the histrion's time".[66] He heavily criticized the writing, technical issues, pacing, as well every bit the gameplay, which he considered overly extensive and complicated also as the "clunky" menus.[66] He was also critical of the story, calling information technology "an unsubtle script that stomps all over even the almost interesting story scenes". However, he praised the "spectacular" music and "beautifully realized" environments.[66] Noguchi of IGN Japan criticized some of the game's mechanics not being well explained and the amount of bugs found in the game at launch, only was looking forward to the early patch of the game to prepare many of these issues.[63] Jed Pressgrove, however, writing for Slant Magazine was highly disquisitional of the big amount of tutorials found in the game, stating "Information technology'south very difficult, if not impossible, to feel like you lot're in a different world, much less experiencing a story, when such elements call attention to the contrived nature of the whole shebang."[67] Pressgrove did approve of the game's "rousing soundtrack", however.[67] Washington Mail 'south Harold Goldberg establish the "intricate, unfriendly gameplay" inaccessible, maxim "A wondrous game lies in there somewhere.. it's too oft too hard to swim through", and that he wouldn't play the game again after completing information technology.[68]
