More Xenoblade Chronicles 3 leaks seem to have surfaced that suggest the pre-order period for the Special Edition of the upcoming title will be right after the next Nintendo Direct.

It was previously revealed by Nintendo that the release of the Special or Collector’s edition of the game (which will have the base game and other amazing collectibles) would be shifted back all the way to the Autumn of 2022.

The new leaks, which seem to have been taken from a 4chan post, suggest that the pre-order period for the premium version of the game will be after the upcoming Nintendo event.

It’s highly likely that the show will provide an extensive reveal of Xenoblade Chronicles 3, which will include more insights into gameplay, the characters, as well as the core narrative that the title will revolve around.
