This week’s issue of Famitsu features a 14-page article on Xenoblade Chronicles 2, which will finally be released this Friday. Included in that article is an interview with director Tetsuya Takahashi and main composer Yasunori Mitsuda. Japanese blog Hachima Kikou has a summary of the interview up on their website, and Perfectly Nintendo has kindly translated that.
Xeno fans rejoice! The six-part saga has finally been told!
Xenogears was originally supposed to be a six part series, but Squaresoft cut the budget for the first game and canceled future plans. Xenosaga, published by Bandai Namco, was its spritual successor, and it too was supposed to be a six part series but was cut to a trilogy after subpar sales for Xenosaga 2.
Future Redeemed is by far the best DLC of the Xenoblade series, achieving its lofty goals of introducing new characters, reconnecting with older ones, and closing a narrative that Monolith Soft’s main man Tetsuya Takahashi has been trying to tell since 1998.
DualShockers Writes "Xenoblade Chronicles 2 features a wide range of characters. Amid the cast of Rex, his allies, and even his enemies, you'll find many interesting personalities throughout your playthrough. However, among all these endearing heroes and villains, few come close to being as interesting or compelling as Poppi."
