With Xenoblade Chronicles 3 only a month away, the game starred in its own Nintendo Direct, featuring details on the characters, story, world, and more. The 20-minute presentation falls just a few months after the game's release date was unexpectedly moved up from its initial September release date to the July 29 one confirmed in today's event.

The game has six main characters, each belonging to one of two warring nations. These include Noah, Eunie, and Lanz, who represent the country of Keves. While Mio, Taion, and Sena belong to Agnus.

However, Xenoblade Chronicle 3's main characters have become fugitives, meeting each other on a special mission and deciding to band together rather than fight. Their quest to restore the world's natural order will take them through a fantastic array of landscapes and pit them against difficult foes. 

In the trailer, we saw vast grassy fields, endless deserts, and snowcapped peaks. All of these will contain monsters to fight, treasure to discover, and spots to rest. Colonies dot the world, giving players a place to shop, dine, and meet new characters. You'll also find rest spots, which resemble small camps where the main characters can cook, craft gems to increase their abilities, and talk about anything they learned from wandering the world, which may lead to new quests. The world seems large, but the game helps players traverse it in
