The Xenoblade Chronicles series may not have needed a redemption, but that didn't stop Future Redeemed from being one of the best entries in the franchise.

The Xenoblade Chronicles trilogy comes to a close with a great piece of DLC, that offers a lot of quality content and gives a couple of much needed answers to long-time fans. Our only concern regards its nature and the fact that a lot of people could potentially miss this one and all of the important story beats it comes with.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3: Future Redeemed is an absolutely essential component of the Xenoblade Chronicles trilogy. Combat and exploration are tightly refined to keep things moving along, so there's never a dull moment unless you choose to take a breather. The story relies heavily on nostalgia for its emotional moments, but fans will be pleased that some of the loose ends are finally tied together, albeit with knots they likely didn't expect.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3: Future Redeemed finishes this saga with a compelling story coupled with amazing fights elevated by a great combat system, although the new AP system can be a bit divisive it's still heavily recommended to any longtime Xenoblade fan.

Future Redeemed served primarily to “put the dots in the i's”, but it would be unfair to say that that's all this latest DLC for Xenoblade Chorincles 3 is. Above all, it is a culmination of several elements and mechanics of this series that leaves us to ponder its future with very positive expectations. For the most attentive and knowledgeable of the global plot, the final chapter of this DLC opens up immense possibilities, making it impossible not to be anxious about what could come in the future. If you're a fan of JRPGs this is a series you can't miss!

Future Redeemed feels like a final piece to a story more than a decade in the making. It re-unites old friends, reminds you that N is still one of the best villains the series has ever come up with, and reignites that feeling you had when the original Xenoblade suddenly cut to a space station and your perception of the game permanently shifted. If Takahashi decides to revisit this universe in the future, I'll happily join in, but if this truely does mark the end for the Klaus trilogy, I leave happy.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3: Future Redeemed is a fantastic addition to the Xenoblade Chronicles saga. It ties up the story so far in a nice thematic bow, with equal amounts of new additions and returning favorites. The combat system is tighter and incredibly satisfying, and is even tied to exploration to make you feel like you're always growing. Once again, I can't wait to see what Monolithsoft cooks up next.

[Xenoblade Chronicles 3: Future Redeemed is] worth your 10-12 hours just for its prequel tale, its eventual conclusion, and its numerous references alone, not to mention some sweet and small additions to the already-fun combat. If you're still halfway through Xenoblade Chronicles 3 or if part 3 is your first game in the series, this DLC is not for you because the majority of your enjoyment for it relies on the callbacks and past nods of previous Xeno titles.

Just like it did with the excellent Torna – The Golden Country, Monolith Soft has given us a carefully refined prequel experience here, adding to and improving upon core combat and exploration elements that were already best-in-class. Xenoblade Chronicles 3's delightful battle system feels better than ever, its stunning landscapes are packed full of exploration that's been reinvigorated thanks to the new Affinity system and there's enough emotion and revelations packed in to satisfy the most ardent of Xenoblade fans. It also provides something of a clean slate going forward for this most intriguing of franchises. Where will the world of Xenoblade take us next? We cannot wait to find out.

Xenoblade 3 Future Redeem did everything right to give this trilogy the respectful conclusion it deserved, it is a masterpiece marred by a convoluted battle system that keeps getting more complicated as the time goes on
