I’ve had some heaten debates on Miiverse back then on this topic so, to whom it may concern: I told you so.
☆ NintendObs Weekly – Monday, September 14, 2015 – Sunday, September 20, 2015.
Update:
The information on Lin Lee Koo’s age is incorrect: “However, it was revealed that Lin Lee, formerly Lynlee, will be 15 in the Western releases, as opposed to 13 in the original Japanese iteration.” Lin is 13 in the Western versions of the game. Also, on the free DLC characters the name’s not Axana but Alexa, and it’s not Yelve but Yelv instead. HB’s name is correct while Boze’s name is Bozé. The unlockable nature of the free DLC characters is also incorrect: only one quest per character is needed in order to unlock them. (Good thing I came back to that article now that I have the game.)
Game Informer’s October 2015 issue has a feature on Xenoblade Chronicles X that discusses the fate of some of the Nintendo Wii U game’s DLC. In Japan, a number of supplemental add-ons were sold that brought additional characters, quests, and buffs into the game. For the North American and European releases, these four extra characters will be free. Originally, they were ¥500 each.
The four additional characters for Xenoblade Chronicles X are Axana, Boze, HB, and Yelve. Axana is the only woman, Boze is the bald, older man, HB is the man with the glasses, and Yelve is the blond with the tattoo on his face. Each character has two unique Special Arts and blueprints, and becomes playable after completing the three quests tied to them.
This means people will have access to 16 playable characters in Xenoblade Chronicles X on December 4 without having to pay an any additional fees. The other DLC quests were not discussed in the article. However, it was revealed that Lin Lee, formerly Lynlee, will be 15 in the Western releases, as opposed to 13 in the original Japanese iteration.
