Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is an action-packed RPG with open-world exploration and a dynamic party system. The player controls up to three Drivers at a time, each paired with a Blade that grants them unique abilities and powers. The Blades can be assigned to specific Drivers based on their strengths and the party's elemental balance.
The world is divided into wilderness and towns, with points of interest that can be interacted with using the Blades' skills. As players explore and complete quests, they can increase the Titans' level of development, unlocking new shops, items, and trade agreements between their inhabitants.
