E3 2018: Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Expands With Torna – The Golden Country

How will Xenoblade Chronicles 2 wrap up its narrative? The newly-announced Torna – The Golden Country could be the final major DLC release for the sequel…what will it reveal about the main storyline?

The game’s antagonist, Jin, comes from a place called Torna — but it predates him by at least 500 years. The new DLC expansion delves into the history of Torna and what shaped it into the community it is today.

Guide a group of legendary warriors on a journey through the tragic history that doomed a kingdom and drove a hero down a dark path 500 years before the events of the Xenoblade Chronicles 2 game. Defend yourself from Malos and his forces using all the fury of this refined battle system, allowing you to fight as both the artificial lifeforms known as Blades and their masters, the Drivers.

If you already own the main game and Expansion Pass, you can download Torna the second it becomes available. If you don’t own either, Nintendo is actually selling Torna as its own standalone product. Yes, with a case and everything, because Nintendo is awesome like that:

Of course, you could already own the Expansion Pass right now and still want this, in which case you’d be buying it twice. No one ever claimed the life of a collector was easy.

Xenoblade Chronicles 2: Torna – The Golden Country makes its debut September 14 on Nintendo Switch.
