Combat works well in the game as you have three characters in your party who work in tandem to defeat them and hopefully collect any loot. To complement the story, Xenoblade also has some great voice acting and I love how these ancient gods have now become part of the landscape where you play which makes the game quite fantasy orientated.Īt its core, Xenoblade Chronicles uses Japanese RPG mechanics that requires the player to explore this interactive world, engage in missions plus side quests and battle their way through a plethora of enemies with some tough boss battles along the way. Add in a legendary weapon called the Monado and a warrior with an unmet destiny called Shulk and your mission is basically to end this battle once and for all. In terms of story, the game boasts a great yet clichéd narrative which involves an ancient battle between two warring gods, Mechonis and Bios whose endless fighting has been transferred down the ages to other warring factions. With that said, you do need a new 3DS console to play this game due to the graphical nature of this title. Although this is basically a fine-tuned port from the Nintendo Wii version, the new 3DS version also includes StreetPass and Amiibio features. However this new incarnation now features 3D graphics and is still just an engaging as the original Wii version but probably more entertaining due to the portability aspect. Xenoblade Chronicles is a remake of the popular Nintendo Wii Japanese RPG that is now available for the new Nintendo 3DS consoles. Primary Format – Games – New Nintendo 3DS
