Thanks to the latest release of the Japanese gaming edition Weekly famitsu the duration of the additional scenario became known Future connected for role play Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition. The plot passage of the epilogue will take from 10 to 12 hours, and subject to the performance of side activities – about 20 hours.
Game Development Manager Tetsuya Takahashi He said that it would be possible to make the epilogue even longer if it came out in the format of a paid DLC, but the development of such a project would affect the production cycle of other new Monolith Soft games. Therefore, in the end, the studio and the producers of Nintendo decided to make Future Connected a free bonus to the remaster Xenoblade Chronicles.
Takahashi also shared other interesting information:
- The first production department of Monolith Soft is divided into three divisions: the first is working on Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition, the second is engaged in a new unannounced project, and the third is helping them two.
- In addition to the first production department, Monolith Soft has a second, which, according to official sitehelps Nintendo with The legend of zelda – presumably actively involved in the creation The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2 (by analogy with the first part, but this is not specified anywhere). Previously, the studio recruited employees specifically for Zelda. Monolith Soft also has an additional team in Kyoto, which is involved in creating the largest hits Nintendo. Of the last – Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
- Returning to the remaster of the first Xenoblade, Takahashi indicated that the studio tried to make the characters beautiful – in the original on Wii, they looked not the best way.
- Monolith Soft could not re-record the entire Xenoblade soundtrack with the orchestra, but was rearranged, the quality of the musical accompaniment increased.
- Compared to Xenoblade Chronicles 2, the studio also performed more efficient file compression and improved sound.
The redesigned and expanded version of the role-playing game Xenoblade Chronicles will go on sale May 29 exclusively on the Nintendo Switch. We already wrote about other features of the project in more detail earlier.
