Nintendo announced Xenoblade Chronicles 3 during its Direct presentation today. It is coming out this September.
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 was an early Switch game, debuting on December 1, 2017. The Japanese RPG has been a hit, selling about 2 million copies.
Along with the Xenoblade series, developer Monolith Soft also works as a support studio on other big Nintendo games, including The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.
The trailer shows a game that looks more like the first Xenoblade Chronicles than its sequel. Nintendo’s description for Xenoblade Chronicles 3 notes that it will “connect the future” of both predecessors.
