Xenoblade Chronicles 3 will receive story DLC before the end of 2023, included in a Full Expansion Pass for the new RPG.
Announced today during a Nintendo Direct dedicated to Xenoblade Chronicles 3, an Expansion Pass will be available to purchase when it launches next July. Included in this pass will be a new story DLC, which will be released sometime before the end of 2023.
That’s a pretty big release window. Prior to that, those who purchase the Expansion Pass for Xenoblade Chronicles 3 will receive “Useful Items” and color variants for various character outfits on the same day as the game launches on July 29.
After that, there will be a challenge battle, new outfits, and even a new hero and quests added to Xenoblade Chronicles before the end of 2022. After that, another wave of DLC will include similar content, releasing in late April 2023. . .
Then finally, the fourth wave of DLC included in the Expansion Pass will be released in late 2023, and it is this wave that will feature the new story DLC. All things considered, the Expansion Pass offers multiple main and side quests, two new hero characters, and several smaller aspects like Challenge Battles and all-new items.
Elsewhere, you’ll be able to use any amiibo with Xenoblade Chronicles 3 to get new in-game items. However, if you own the Shulk amiibo for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, you’ll get a weapon skin that turns protagonist Noah’s sword into the Monado, which Shulk originally used in the first Xenoblade Chronicles.
A trailer for Xenoblade Chronicles 3 earlier this year in April even hid the return of a familiar character.
