Due out on July 29 of this year, Xenoblade Chronicles 3 will feature a combat system with up to seven party members, which is touched upon through various screens and a short rundown on said site. Noting that “positioning” is important, it re-confirms the seven-person combat system with cold hard screens, while stating that Nopons will be integrated into the party as well.

On top of that, class swapping is reconfirmed: “As you progress through the adventure, you will be able to change the character’s class to create a free party.
