Well, the latest entry in the JRPG franchise is looking to finish off the story of the two previous titles, and seems to take inspiration from Xenoblade Chronicles X and the Skell mechanic. It brings together different races, weapons, and features from every entry and mashes them together \u2013 it\u2019s all pretty exciting for longtime fans.<\/p>\n<p>The main thing you need to know about <strong>Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Ouroboros<\/strong> is that it\u2019s the combination of two characters, who join together to create a large new form that resembles a robot, piloted by both of the characters at once. It\u2019s a little bit Neon Genesis Evangelion in design, a bit like Pacific Rim in function, and is completely badass.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re going to do our best to explain the new mechanic here, as well as what blades mean in this context. Plus, it\u2019s always good to get a refresher course on the game\u2019s active battle system, which plays out in real-time, unlike a lot of JRPG games. You\u2019ll need quick reactions and your wits about you, as the Xenoblade games are notoriously tough. Are you up for the challenge?<\/p>\n<h2>What is the Xenoblade Chronicles 3 battle system?<\/h2>\n<p>Like previous games, Xenoblade Chronicles 3 utilises an active battle system, meaning all of the moves from your party and enemies happen in real-time. There\u2019s no waiting to take your turn. You have to just go for it.<\/p>\n<p>Depending on which character you control, a selection of four different moves is visible in the game UI, mapped to the button on the right side of the controller, A, B, X, and Y. These attacks often have situational bonuses, like back attack. In essence, this means the attack does more damage when you strike a monster from behind, instead of from the front. This means you have to be aware of where you are in relation to enemies, as well as which attacks to use.<\/p>\n<p>In previous entries, there\u2019s a chain system that involves break, topple, and launch. A successful break attack cuts through the enemy\u2019s defence. Once this happens a small window is open, and it\u2019s possible to topple an enemy.<\/p>\n<p>If you pull off these two moves consecutively, the opportunity to launch an enemy into the air is available, providing you successfully perform a launch attack. This has the chance to do massive damage, and successfully chaining these types of moves is essential. You can check out the footage Monolith Soft released below to see the battle mechanics in action.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\">\n<p lang=\"ja\" dir=\"ltr\">\u821e\u53f0\u3068\u306a\u308b\u30a2\u30a4\u30aa\u30cb\u30aa\u30f3\u306b\u306f\u3001\u6ca2\u5c71\u306e\u539f\u751f\u751f\u7269\u3084\u6575\u304c\u305d\u3053\u3089\u4e2d\u306b\u70b9\u5728\u3057\u3066\u3044\u307e\u3059\u3082\u3002\u539f\u751f\u751f\u7269\u3068\u6226\u3046\u304b\u3069\u3046\u304b\u6c7a\u3081\u308b\u306e\u306f\u3001\u3042\u306a\u305f\u306e\u81ea\u7531\u3002\u6b66\u5668\u3092\u624b\u306b\u3057\u305f\u3089\u3001\u30d0\u30c8\u30eb\u304c\u59cb\u307e\u308a\u307e\u3059\u3082\uff01<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/%E3%82%BC%E3%83%8E%E3%83%96%E3%83%AC%E3%82%A4%E3%83%893?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"noopener\">#\u30bc\u30ce\u30d6\u30ec\u30a4\u30c93<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/lU610kFggF\" rel=\"noopener\">pic.twitter.com\/lU610kFggF<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 \u30bc\u30ce\u30d6\u30ec\u30a4\u30c9\u7dcf\u5408 (@XenobladeJP) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/XenobladeJP\/status\/1517402857187594241?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"noopener\">April 22, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2>What are the Xenoblade Chronicles 3 weapon types?<\/h2>\n<p>Each character in Xenoblade Chronicles 3 holds specific weapon types, and these provide advantages to heal, attack, and defence, as well as other changes.

So you can adjust your battle style to suit you. The weapon types announced so far are swords, guns, shields, hammers, dual discs, and origami.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\">\n<p lang=\"ja\" dir=\"ltr\">\u30b1\u30f4\u30a7\u30b9\u3068\u30a2\u30b0\u30cc\u30b9\u306e\u5175\u58eb\u305f\u3061\u306f\u3001\u81ea\u8eab\u304c\u4f7f\u7528\u3059\u308b\u6b66\u5668\u3092\u751f\u307f\u51fa\u3059\u3053\u3068\u304c\u3067\u304d\u307e\u3059\u3082\u3002\u3053\u306e\u6b66\u5668\u306e\u3053\u3068\u3092\u300c\u30d6\u30ec\u30a4\u30c9\u300d\u3068\u547c\u3073\u307e\u3059\u3082\u3002\u30d6\u30ec\u30a4\u30c9\u306f\u3001\u5175\u58eb\u305f\u3061\u306e\u7279\u6027\u306b\u5fdc\u3058\u3066\u751f\u6210\u3055\u308c\u3001\u5263\u30fb\u9283\u30fb\u76fe\u30fb\u30cf\u30f3\u30de\u30fc\u306a\u3069\u3001\u30bf\u30b7\u30e5\u30bf\u30e8\u30fc\u3067\u3059\u3082\uff01<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/%E3%82%BC%E3%83%8E%E3%83%96%E3%83%AC%E3%82%A4%E3%83%893?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"noopener\">#\u30bc\u30ce\u30d6\u30ec\u30a4\u30c93<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/qbzYrTZmG6\" rel=\"noopener\">pic.twitter.com\/qbzYrTZmG6<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 \u30bc\u30ce\u30d6\u30ec\u30a4\u30c9\u7dcf\u5408 (@XenobladeJP) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/XenobladeJP\/status\/1517401516193157120?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"noopener\">April 22, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2>What is the Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Ouroboros<\/h2>\n<p>When in battle, two characters from Xenoblade Chronicles 3 can fuse together in a system called Interlinking.
