Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Review – Best JRPG of the Year?
https://wccftech.com/review/xenoblade-chronicles-2-best-jrpg-year/
This first year of Switch releases has been insane. Just factoring in Zelda and Mario alone it’s been a good year, but when you consider the other titles Nintendo put into the line up this year, it just might be the best first year for a console, well, ever. And for most of the year, I’ve been saying that all I really need for the line up to be complete is a big RPG. Sure, Skyrim took the edge off my cravings for a while, but I’ve played it before. I needed something brand new. So thank goodness for Xenoblade Chronicles 2, because now I can’t help but think the Switch has one big release for every genre, so no matter what I fancy doing on a long car or plane journey, I’ll have something to satisfy.
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is a big – and I mean big – anime-style JRPG that means business. Here you’re gonna find yourself running across massive beasts known as Titans, and the continents of this world literally rest upon their backs. You play as Rex, a salvager who dives into the ruins on the old world for treasures, who soon gets tangled up in typical JRPG business, and finds himself with the fate of the world seemingly resting upon his shoulders.
