It has streamlined combat and throws less time-consuming machinery in your way – two of the major issues holding it back before.Īfter spending many more hours exploring the post-game world of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 with the benefits of the expansion pass, I think these are the most significant features added since launch (both paid and free), and how they make your time with the game more interesting. We’ll discuss whether that’s okay shortly (it isn’t), but the ultimate effect is this: If you’re willing to spend an extra $30, Xenoblade Chronicles 2 has turned into much better RPG. But the weird thing is that the enhancements – even simple, quality-of-life tweaks – are split between free updates and the paid expansion pass. These things are not broken into individual chunks it’s basically an all-or-nothing $30 purchase.Īfter The Golden Country’s reveal at E3, I decided to go back to Xenoblade Chronicles 2 to check out the expansion pass and see how the game has improved. According to Nintendo, this purchase would entitle owners to a vague assortment of new quests, items, and characters – along with story campaign that we now know is called Torna: The Golden Country. I understand that, so it didn’t seem strange when Nintendo detailed the plans for Xenoblade Chronicles 2’s $30 expansion pass prior to launch. Players often are expected to pay for additional DLC and expansions above and beyond the main game. Unfortunately, to receive the full benefit of these changes and experience the game at its best, you need to buy DLC. Here’s the good news: Many the game’s problems are now fixed, and it is much more enjoyable today. However, like so many titles these days, Xenoblade Chronicles 2 has evolved since its launch. Despite an impressive world and a fascinating array of interlocking systems, the experience also felt bloated and repetitive. When Xenoblade Chronicles 2 released last year, I had mixed feelings about it.
