Xenoblade Chronicles 3D (For the New 3DS & 3DS XL ONLY!) /3DS

Considered to be one of the best Japanese RPGs of all time, Xenoblade Chronicles was a complete rarity upon release.

Those who were lucky enough to play Monolith Soft's RPG opus gave it rave reviews across the board, and the rest of the world could only live vicariously through it.

Now, with an updated port of the original title on the Nintendo Wii, gamers around the world can finally have the opportunity to play this legendary game, exclusively on the New Nintendo 3DS!

An old conflict of the gods lives on, though those of the present, but they only know one thing, that they must survive the attack of violent robotic creatures known as Mechons.

Follow Shulk and his comrades as they search for the truth of their past, present and future, the ultimate answer being given by the mysterious sword "Monado".

Xenoblade Chronicles 3D takes place in a vast open world with real promise that offers what many open world games lack - the fact that any place seen can be traversed.

While exploring the extremely lush and well-designed environments, players will encounter side quests and the NPCs that give them; these include item hunting and monster hunting missions.

Exploration is highly encouraged, and without interrupting the flow of travel, completed side quests are automatically handed in with the relevant rewards, eliminating the usual mechanic of constantly returning to a central world.



Characteristics:

- There are also day and night cycles that affect in-game factors such as events, item spawns and quests; players can also set the time to the specific time they want.
- Battle in Xenoblade Chronicles 3D is done through real-time, combined with action-based attacks, where manual movement and key placement ensure deep strategy.
- While party members automatically attack enemies within range, limited manual commands can be made,
- But these are reserved for character-specific moves called "Arts" and "Talent Arts", which are set with a cooldown period.
- While leveling up is done with traditional experience points, the true potential of party members shines when they develop their repertoire of "Arts".
- To further affect the battle flow, players must fully utilize the "Party Gauge".
- Which fills up over time with successive attacks and allows multiple attacks to be chained; but with each command, the party members will also increase the enemy's rage through the aggro ring, thus becoming the main target.
- There is also a "Visions" system, which gives players a sneaky premonition of future enemy moves.
- So that by balancing chain attacks, paying close attention to enemy aggro, and careful positioning, players can leave battles unscathed, but only to the credit of their ability to be aware of such factors.



- Finally, Xenoblade Chronicles 3D features extensive character customization, with outfit, armor and weapon changes reflected directly in-game, appearing in both scripted and field events.
- Already a very well finished title, Xenoblade Chronicles 3D is a game that all fans of a first hand JRPG can look forward to playing
