Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Update 2.1.0 Implements Pyra & Mythra Amiibo, New Nopon NPC & Future Redeemed Bug Fixes

Nintendo and Monolithsoft have announced that Xenoblade Chronicles 3 has been updated to version 2.1.0, implementing the functionalities of the Pyra and Mythra amiibo. Meeting the new Nopon NPC will let you gain the items from the amiibo. Additionally, some bugs in the Future Redeemed DLC scenario were fixed.

You can view the full quoted patch notes for Xenoblade Chronicles 3 below:

Additional Functionality

Added amiibo functionality to the game for “Pyra” and “Mythra” amiibo. By scanning the amiibo in “System” > “amiibo” in the Menu Screen, you will be able to use the following special clothing items.

Pyra amiibo

  • Aegis Sword: Pyra (Limited to Swordfighter)

Mythra amiibo

  • Aegis Sword: Mythra (Limited to Swordfighter)

A Nopon NPC, Miibomii, has appeared at Llyn Nyddwr Camp in the Fornis region. Meeting certain criteria while playing the game will also let you obtain the aforementioned Pyra and Mythra amiibo items from Miibomii.

Bug Fixes for “Future Redeemed”

Fixed the following issues for Expansion Pass Wave 4, “Future Redeemed.”

  • Increased the percentage chance to re-acquire Battle Manuals, Tactics Manuals, and Strategy Manuals.
  • Fixed an issue where players were unable to re-attempt the final battle after experiencing a party wipe.
  • Fixed an issue where some players were unable to complete the Chapter 2 quest, “Pursue Glimmer,” who’s thought to have headed north-west.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 tells the story of protagonists Noah and Mio contending with a conflict between the nations of Keves and Agnus. 6 characters will be the crux of the experience, and the broad concept of “life” will be the title’s central theme.

The narrative ties in elements and plotlines from the future of the prior two mainline games, Xenoblade Chronicles and Xenoblade Chronicles 2. Flutes seem to play an integral role in this title’s premise.

The summoning of this powerful new form depends on a new Interlink system. If specific conditions are met, duos of characters can combine into a mech, and choosing when to transform is key to the more difficult battles. Another system is a class change option, allowing players to customize their parties’ builds further than in previous games.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is now available for Nintendo Switch.
