I won’t go too much into the plot to avoid spoilers, but I think it was fantastic at fleshing out character backstories and giving us additional world building. Torna ~ The Golden Country takes place 500 years before the main game’s events. Like with my review of Xenoblade Chronicles 2, this post was originally written for a YouTube video, and has been edited for clarity and conciseness. It’s available as a physical copy at retailers, complete with a cartridge and a code for the rest of Xenoblade 2’s Expansion Pass content for 40 dollars. Monolith Soft and Nintendo decided, in fact, that it was massive enough to warrant a standalone release.

Software description provided by the publisher.Torna ~ The Golden Country is Xenoblade 2’s big expansion.

Who knows where this twisted journey will lead. On the long road ahead, you’ll rest at camps, cook food, craft items, and share a heart-to-heart with many a traveling companion. By equipping Drivers with new weapons, you can alter their attacks and elemental powers to perform devastating combos. To stand a chance, you must master every character’s powerful skills including Talent Arts, a strategic element returning from the original Xenoblade Chronicles™ game. Together, you’ll fight for the survival of mankind, under threat by Malos, who wields the legendary sword, The Monado.

Defend yourself from Malos and his forces using all the fury of this refined battle system, allowing you to fight as both the artificial lifeforms known as Blades and their masters, the Drivers.ĭrivers and their Blades can change from the frontlines of combat to the back in order to unleash powerful context-sensitive abilities. Guide a group of legendary warriors on a journey through the tragic history that doomed a kingdom and drove a hero down a dark path 500 years before the events of the Xenoblade Chronicles™ 2 game.
