    It has a lot of dephts and you're rewarded by engaging with the mechanics
    The fights can be really challenging so I advice being careful in boss fights and unique monsters
    The music is incredible. Just as good as xenoblade chronicles 2 if not better. Better than xenoblade chronicles too
    The flutes adds a lot to the atmosphere of the game
    The story is good enough but where it shines the most is with the main party
    Every characters are compelling
    Chapter 5 in particular is the best part of this character driven story
    The world is great too
    It's big and and fun to explore
    Entire areas outside of the main story are available during the game
    The characters designs are the best in the serie

    Blown away by this game. The combat is the best the series has seen, the exploration even gives xenoblade X a run for its money. And the amount of dialogue and interaction with the main cast, and the wealth of side quest with all the various colonies makes this an easy contender for my favourite game of the year and maybe even in the past decade

Changing to so many different classes keeps the gameplay unique and engaging, the 6 party members are all memorable Noah, Lanz, Eunie, Mio, Taion and Sena are all great characters, you can get a 7 member that's a Hero that gives you new classes for each hero but you can't control them. Now the gameplay mixes Xenoblade's 1 & 2's gameplay you get 3 actions of each its good balance. The environments are probably the best I've seen on the switch Monolith really knows how to make great maps, finally the story personally I thought main story was great and the ending nearly had me in tears, good to see that's games that can still do that to me, and I did all the sidequests and really enjoyed them , looking to see what Monolith works on next XCX switch port or XCX2 or maybe a new IP ahhhhhh… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. And yet another masterpiece from Monolith Soft after Xenoblade Chronicles DE. I just finished the game's main story after 120 hours of gameplay and damn was that a good ride! Comparing to XC1 and XC2 (I have finished both), a lot of things have been improved upon in this game. Especially the side quests, character depth, character interactions, and combat. The game doesn't throw everything at you at once so there are many tutorial screens during your journey BUT the new mechanics introduced through chapters made the gameplay feel fresh.

    People complain about the graphics but bruhh, I mean the textures can be bad at times yes, but this game looks so friggin' good for a handheld game. I personally preferred playing this on handheld mode because I like to play chill in bed while playing, and mostly because the post processing that MS developed for this game made the handheld experience a lot better compared to previous titles.

    The story... its philosophical story had a bittersweet but satisfying ending. I had goosebumps throughout the final cutscene. Although some people had problems with it, I really liked how the game ended. It was the raw bittersweet feeling of moving on... away from the past and one's past regrets, and instead looking forward into the future. It hurts, but we've got to do it anyway either because we simply have to, or because it is for the people we love and care for the most. The ending had so much heart and meaning. It's all I could ask for from a Xenoblade story. I honestly can't wait for the DLC story.

    OST is hands down amazing. Especially during battles! Nothing else need be said.

    Like Xenoblade Chronicles DE, it wasn't perfect, but it is still a masterpiece for me, thus I give it a 10/10.

    PS. Thank god for the English dub actors and director. No more "HaiYAH..." for me or for anyone. I finished the game on English dub but now I'm gonna try Japanese on new game plus.    … Expand

It's not a perfect game, but Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is just about everything I wanted it to be. The gorgeous music, wide open environments, inspired art direction, stellar voice acting, and emotionally gripping story make for a game that I can see myself playing for years to come.

    Story: Incredible. Hooks you right from the get go with it's premise, instantly introducing lots of mysteries and mysterious characters, and they really fleshed out all the main characters personalities, and the dynamic they have with each other is so good it's unbelievable how they did it. For the cringe level, some of the villain lines are a bit cringy, like one of the villain using french metaphors for some reason, but there's almost no fanservice compared to 2.

    Music: Masterpieces as usual with the series.

    Combat: Great. Easily the best one out of the trilogy. Combat is now already pretty fun from the first chapter, as you have access to the break -> topple -> daze combo immediately. They keep introducing new mechanics and constantly to keep combat from getting stale, but they paced it pretty well so you don't get overwhelmed, and the tutorials are actually good and you have a training mode too.

    At first I had small complaints with the story and combat and would give it a 9....

    however, as I came back to the game after beating it to study the plot more and discover that I could disable a lot of clutter of the battle on the settings... I`m increasing to a 10

    No me he pasado los otros dos xenoblade pero esto de momento, tras 20 horas jugadas, me parece una maravilla. Junto a Elden Ring es lo mejor del año. Y con la cantidad de retrasos que está habiendo yo creo que debería ser GOTY uno de los dos.

    I finished Xenoblade 3.

    I fell like a mess.
    The ending made me a sad emotional man.
    Not a single game has made me as emotional as this game.

    i still get tears when I hear the song (Where we belong)

    After 11 years i found my favorite game of all time.

This near-masterpiece features the most original and compelling narrative in a Xeno title since Xenogears, with rich themes, a timeless cast of characters, and the strongest battle system yet in a Xenoblade game -- now with the addition of the tried-and-true and much beloved Job System. Xenoblade 3 also has a much darker tone and story than either of its predecessors, though it never gets too dour or full of itself *cough*Final Fantasy XVI*cough* -- as heavy as it can be at times, Xenoblade 3 always keeps its sense of fun.

    It is also by far the biggest and longest Xeno game, featuring a beautiful and fully realized world to explore, and countless side quests and side content to take part in. The game is so jam packed with content that you can easily hit triple-digit hours of play; though -- as one can imagine -- with so much content, not all of it is equally as compelling. Some side quests are very well developed and meaningful, while others feel more like useless filler.    … Expand

    This game fundamentally changed the way I think. The story is a sight to behold, the cutscenes are amazing, the music is spectacular. The gameplay is super fun and addicting, much more complex than the first game, but a lot more simplified than the second. It's a perfect, happy medium. The characters are astonishingly realistic. Fantastic game. I have zero complains.

    From everything that I've played so far in the game, I can and will strongly recommend this game to those out there. If you are looking into buying the game, I'd also suggest purchasing the first 2 games as well, as in my opinion, Xenoblade Chronicles is the most underrated game franchise Nintendo owns.

    I love this perfectly blends the combat and world-building of the first games. I was truly amazed of how all the hero and side quests have an extra layer of world-building and separate narrative, like the Witcher 3. I also loved the music. The voice acting and individual character arcs were also so well written.

    Masterpiece. A true redemption from the second game. Mature, emotional, well told. Great history, combat, script, music. XC1 was an experiment, with a lot of flaws, but ended being marvelous. XC2 was a bad step. Off context, fanservice, hard to take serious. XC3 improves the first game and do everything right. Play it!

I will be spending a great deal of time in postgame to make sure I haven't missed anything. I also like how it managed to connect the first two games, but in a manner that still leaves them as independent entities that could each see unrelated sequels of their own. Worth the play! I look forward to the additional Expansion Pass DLC content!… Expand

    Ultimately, Xenoblade Chronicles 3 represents the pinnacle of the series, both gameplay-wise and narratively. The characters are another highlight of the game. They are well-drawn, with only a small amount of formulaicness. [Issue#321]

With its engaging open world, engrossing combat system, loveable characters and gripping story, this game is a masterpiece of the genre! [Issue #62 – November/December 2022, p. 67]

    Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is a clear improvement over its predecessors in almost every way. It streamlines so much and avoids past pitfalls, though there’s still work to be done in terms of balancing the difficulty. There’s a grounded story here with a solid cast of characters, and the basic plot is much easier to digest. The world design exceeds past efforts with ease, and the implementation of Hero Quests is a game changer. While the devs have done an admirable job making the battle system easier to grasp, it feels like the series has fully explored and exhausted these core combat mechanics, signaling it’s time for the next game to change things up. As a whole, it stands as a phenomenal RPG with a one-of-a-kind sense of exploration you can’t find anywhere else.
