In what many would consider a shocking announcement, Nintendo revealed that Xenoblade Chronicles 3‘s story DLC, Future Redeemed, is out at the end of April. Some expected the DLC to arrive in the summer, fall, or even the winter of 2023, but lo and behold, Nintendo has the unrivaled ability to surprise us. Here’s everything we know so far.

Future Redemeed is out on April 25, 2023. Nintendo originally stated that this fourth and presumably final DLC pack would be out “by 12/31/2023,” hence the aforementioned shock factor for the sudden release.

It’s part of the season pass, which was 𝓰comprised of a minor set of bonuses in Pack 1, and characters/challenge modes in Pack 2 and Pack 3.

The story is meant to tie all three games together, and Rex/Shulk are involved

In the accompanying trailer, we’re put in the shoes of Matthew, the new core protagonist of the Future Redeemed story. , they are described as a “young man who belongs to the organization “The City” that opposes Moebius. He has a straightforward and caring personality and is looking for his missing sister, Nael.”
