Xenoblade Genesis, new Xenoblade game for Switch 2

gamingJun 9, 20261563,553

Xenoblade Genesis was revealed by Monolith Soft for Nintendo Switch 2 with a 2027 release window. Creations around the reveal span illustrations, short animatics, cosplay, comics, and cinematic edits. Much of the work spotlights elfgirl Utena, a mysterious new male lead, and recurring Malos-themed purple imagery, with pieces riffing on the trailer's hollow-planet curvature. The trailer also teases an Ether Jet vehicle and fully voiced Heart to Heart conversations, and the announced soundtrack lists Yasunori Mitsuda alongside Mariam Abounnasr, Manami Kiyota, and choral group ANUNA.

a filename left in the trailer seems to confirm that Xenoblade Genesis is in fact Project Legacy!

I think the setting and vibe confirmed that already but damn this is a crazy thing to leave in the trailer on accident lol

i hope the hollow earth setting of xenoblade genesis means there's a part in the story where some big shit is going on elsewhere and the party looks up in the sky and they can see a big explosion on the opposite side of the sphere. something like that

i really like the new more fantasy aesthetic and am really excited for when the second shoe inevitably drops in the third act and the final battle takes place in a space station or something :v

I hope they go out of the hollow earth onto the surface of it and it's like abig space ship or whatever

Yasunori Mitsuda is the lead composer of Xenoblade Genesis. Mariam Abounnasr (Xenoblade 2/3) & Manami Kiyota (Xenoblade 1/2/3) are also on the team with ANUNA doing choral vocals. The soundtrack is going to be as ridiculously good as all the other games.

okay so Xenoblade Genesis is definitely gonna do something with Malos right. there's way too much ominous purple shit going on.

like the way they depict these things looks a little too much like how they made the trinity processor's cores look in 3/FR

Pneuma's sword is visible when they put the orb in the sword... The purple could be Malos, or possibly Ouroboros... I'm pretty convinced it takes place post FR
