A hint of anotherXenobladefrom a voice actress is now being corroborated
It seems like a newXenoblade Chroniclesgame is in development. Following a stir of speculation that came up over a voice actress’ comment,Fanbyteis now reporting that a newXenoblade Chroniclesis in development.
Back in June, voice actress Jenna Coleman appeared on the YouTube channel Din’s Meteorite to discuss her time working onXenoblade Chroniclesandthe recent Switch remaster. During the discussion, one part about her role in the firstXenoblade Chroniclesbrought up an odd hint about a possible new entry.

“God, when was the first game? Ten years ago?” said Coleman. “It was a long time ago, I did it pre-Doctor Whodays and then when they did the second one, they just asked me to come back, and I think they’re going to do another.” Coleman pauses for a moment, pondering if it’s “common knowledge.” “Yeah, I think they’re going to do another.”
Fanbyte’s Imran Khan says according to his sources, he can confirm that’s the case. The newXenobladeis reportedly nearing the final stages of development at Monolith Soft, but its release date may be held back for any number of reasons.

According to Fanbyte’s report, the game is a sequel toXenoblade Chronicles 2, taking place in the far-flung future with “a few returning characters who have long-outlived their human counterparts” from the previous games.
Xenoblade Chronicles 3was reportedly set to be revealed earlier this year, and may still be announced before the end of it, but it’s had a difficult time, both with development amid the pandemic and in optimizing the game for the Nintendo Switch. It’s reportedly aiming for more character models on screen at once than any previous title.

The report concludes by noting that, as always, take these rumors with a grain of salt, and no in-development game is guaranteed to be the same as rumored or even released. ForXenobladefans eager for more after the extra bit of content that arrived as part of theXenoblade Chronicles Definitive Edition, however, it seems like they might have something to look forward to.
