Characters

Six soldiers hailing from these nations, will take part in a grand tale with life as its central theme.

  • Lanz: An ally of Noah’s who wields a great sword that doubles as a shield.
  • Eunie: A childhood friend of Noah and Lanz who has a sharp tongue and rough personality. She specialises in healing her allies in battle.
  • Mio: The other protagonist of this story, Mio is a soldier of Agnus and an off-seer like Noah.
  • Taion: A tactician who fights alongside Mio using his smarts and insight.
  • Sena: This soldier is an ally of Mio and Taion. Despite her petite figure, Sena wields immense physical strength!

Developed by Monolith SOft, Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is arriving for the Nintendo Switch this September.
