MonolithSoft also assists with development on a lot of other Nintendo titles, like Splatoon and BotW/TotK. But we don’t really know what they’d be assisting with right now, I doubt a new Zelda, Splatoon or Animal Crossing is coming this year. It’s just a portion of staff that assists on projects but there isn’t any obvious game they’d be working on right now. If they are full steam ahead on their own projects then I could believe MonolithSoft has something to show off this year that gets a 2025 release date. MS was also recruiting for a fantasy project even before XC3 was revealed. It’s entirely possible that whatever that project became could be released soon. I love Xeno but I’d also be so down to see something entirely new from them that was wholly their own, and didn’t have to bring up decades old game lore that the majority of current Xeno fans haven’t experienced.

I think the reason the update makes you redownload DLC is that it probably broke Miimombii and they had to issue a revision 3. Little known fact, Future Redeemed had to get a revision 2 release because if you somehow had the update that added Miimombii without also having downloaded FR rev 2, Miimombii was displayed as "Dummy" and had no functionality. Something about the order the files are loaded in and overwritten by each other.

Time for a boatload of speculation based on nothing. I think you're wrong. XCX remake is real, and will be announced for Switch 2. It might not come out this year, more likely to be next year. But it will be unveiled at bare minimum. I've always been team 2025 for the release of XCX myself, because XC1DE was the 10th anniversary. So I think from now on we're going to be in a cycle where after 10 years have passed, a blade game will get a remaster. XCX was also noteworthy for being the game that served as Monolith Soft's HD toolset's origin. I think it'd just be very fitting if a remake of that title then served as the basis and origin for a 4K development pipeline. But most importantly. I don't think that 2024 is going to go without a xenoblade game. I think that Xenoblade 3 was written in the fashion is way for a reason. It's because it was meant to be a multi game story arc. So...basically, I think there's a canon Xenoblade Warriors tie in. Mythra's child has not been revealed for a reason. They're the MC of that title, and it'll be set in Aionios's earliest days, and will depict many of the things we only heard in passing in 3 and FR. Things like Melia's capture, the death of Riki in aionios, the creation of the sword of origin, and so on. And given the time period of such a title, you could get away with having playable characters from all three blade games casts. Why do I think this is happening? Because Noah and Mio's amiibo came out so late after the game itself, which is extremely unlike basically every other series specific amiibo. Usually, barring smash because that's a special case, when a game has amiibo, most or all of the amiibo are day and date with the game itself. It's because they'll have functionality in this game, maybe something like allowing a city version of Noah and Mio to wear their XC3 outfits. And there might be a handful other figures made too, hence xenoblade being made an amiibo series now. How's this all feasible? Well, for warriors, outside of Tetsuya Takahashi and his peers directing the story, it'd be a mostly hands off affair for monolith in terms of game design and cutscene production and that sort of thing. Omega Force would do the vast lions share of the work. While the main Monolith Soft teams work on XCXDE and XC4. But to add onto that. I'm gonna go ahead and guess that XCXDE began work as a secondary project following the completion of XC1DE. When 3 wrapped, more hands would have been available to work on that. We probably don't see XC4 or whatever the next main project is till 2026 at the soonest, but more likely 2028, given that 2027 would be occupied by a 2DE if the 10 years pattern holds.

For the Xenoblade 1 logo for the amiibos, I guess they simply chose the X from Xenoblade 1 because 1 is the most iconic game that gave enough success for the series to continue. It's most likely the same reason why they used the Monado logo in Smash to represent the Xenoblade series as a all. I find this choice more fitting cause the Monado doesn't appear in Xenoblade 2 for example and yet, Pyra/mythra have the Monado logo. The X letter is more what represents the series as a all even though the Monado is a very iconic sword. But of course they had to choose a specific X to stay recognizable and each game title has its specific artstyle so the X from 1 here.

Importantly, Kadowaka games (the publisher of this artbook) is the one sending the questions based off the survey so I wouldn’t expect definite answers on unexplained stuff. Things I expect are artwork of Mythra’s kid and maybe some description on her, Monolith might explain more about the Black Fog and Catastrophe of both worlds coming together, maybe an answer about why Z called Alpha his god and some small implied hints about the future. But I do think it’s extremely cool we are getting a questions section. I just hope people answered thoroughly about what they want explained. Also, agreed on the Xenosaga KOS-MOS collab and it’s extremely weird the JPN VA Mariko Suzuki came back as well as Monolith Soft retweeting stuff if there was no plan going forward for something Xenosaga cooking. We will just have to see though. I didn’t know you can remove the armour in game now and have everyone in their camp outfits! That’s so cool! I am planning to grind for N and M outfit soon too.

There is another other alternative: Them doing a port (patch) of any current Switch games for Switch 2, maybe just to get a hold of how the new technology works. From what I heard from the people sleuthing away, the new system will have some new ways of tech, like mesh shaders and AV1 video encoding/decoding, and also DLSS 2/3.5 (basically, no Frame Generation), and they might want to, either internally or publicly, fiddle with it so the actual new game can make that work out of the box. Still, I hope they try a new IP. Not because I don't like Xenoblade, but because doing new shit can help find new gameplay. I don't think many people would like an out of the box Action game for Xenoblade (not what we have, which is much more a Turn Based RPG than even FF7R), but if they successfully do something like that with a new game and they are successful, they might be able to "backport" it into Xenoblade. Something like how Bayonetta 3 wouldn't have existed if not for Astral Chain - the demon workings is an iteration on the Legions of AC.

MonolithSoft is the JP studio that's been making the Xenoblade games, along with co-developing the Zelda, Splatoon, Animal Crossing, and Super Smash Bros. Monolith Productions, on the other hand, is a USA studio.

This would be ass asf. Usually the point of Warrior spinoff games is just pure fanservice, we already got an official trilogy that wraps everything up nicely. Anything else would just be a mess.

@@therealjaystone2344 Let's be honest, even the first Fire Emblem Warriors wasn't much of a fanservice to that franchise, unlike what Zelda's first Warriors game was. So much so, that the fans were peeved about it.

The only Xeno game that I can see potentially releasing this year is Xenosaga remastered if it's a thing. I think the teasing in Future Redeemed and Baten Kaitos, a way more niche series from Monolith Soft, getting a remaster kind of hint that a Xenosaga remaster/remake is probably happening at some point in the future. Granted if it's just a remaster and got greenlit around the same time as Baten Kaitos I can see it coming out this year. Though if this is the case it will be a pretty bare bones remaster with some quality of life changes and visual updates. This is fine, but I think Monolith Soft might want to take a crack at remaking Xenosaga to be more like what they originally wanted it to be, which I don't think would be too much more work than making a mainline Xenoblade game nowadays since they're a way more experienced and capable developer than they were back then. I'd honestly prefer the latter than the former as I think Xenosaga deserves a remake. Though if this is the case I can see that coming out way later either right before or after the next mainline Xenoblade game comes out, probably around 2027. If there is any announcement for Xenosaga remastered coming out this year it'll probably be announced in the next direct and released this fall much like Baten Kaitos was last year. If there's nothing than there's definitely no Xeno game coming out this year. I do think they'll try and push for Xenoblade X to be one of the first year games for the Switch 2, as I think they'll want it to be a big showcase game for the system, but it'll release in 2025 for it's 10th anniversary much like Xenoblade DE released for that games 10th anniversary. This is what I hope they're going to do, and it would kind of suck if they don't have something planned to come out between now and the next main Xeno game as that's probably a good 4 more year of wait for that game.

I rather find the remake of xenosaga better because the first two games aged horribly even with the port itself to be HD

@@therealjaystone2344 Yeah only episode 3 has aged gracefully and even then it could be touched up to look much better.

I realy belive a Xenosaga colection is very likely as were 90% likely in the last year of the switch with its sucessor lauching this holiday season. Nintendo like with the 3DS is likely to wind down the switch with ports and remakes something we've already seen a bit of with the two mario rpg remakes. If such a colection is real I expect it some time between April and September that and Metroid Prime 2 HD i would place money on this year

Only problem with your theory is Nintendo has nothing to do with Xenosaga, and wouldn’t be the ones making a call on its remaster if one were to happen. Bandai Namco owns that IP and it is entirely up to them what they do with Xenosaga.

@NoonDragoon Nintendo teamed up with square twords the end of the 3DS's life for Dragon Quest 7&8 ports. I can see them talking to them about a collection just to fill in a release slot. On top of that Nintendo and Namco Bandai have been very close lately to the point Namco Bandai is opening a new studio to work exclusively on Nintendo projects
