Torna ~ The Golden Country has a much more mature overall story and cast than Xenoblade Chronicles 2, keeping some lighthearted moments but not wasting time where it doesn’t need to. There is very little time spent introducing the world, however, as Torna gets into the thick of things quickly, with the mercenary Lora and her partners Jin and Haze meeting up with Torna’s Prince Addam and his Blade Mythra - a special Blade known as the Aegis - as the latter two attempt to hunt down Malos, another Aegis bent on the destruction of the world.
The prequel takes place primarily on the Titan of Torna, one which is new to players of the main game. Amongst the populace are Blades, artificial life-forms that bond with a person known as a Driver, providing the Driver with fighting strength. Those using Torna as their first port of call should note, however, that some elements of the story will likely dampen certain reveals in the main game.Īs a prequel, Torna takes place on Xenoblade Chronicles 2’s world of Alrest, where nation-sized beings called Titans, on which humanity has made its homes, roam the Cloud Sea. Torna ~ The Golden Country is both a fantastic time for those who enjoyed Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and a great jumping-on point for new players wanting to test the waters a bit before diving into the full eighty-hour title. After providing many months of support through additional quests and other bonuses, Monolith Soft has followed it up with a prequel expansion, which allows both fans and newcomers to experience a new tale showing the events 500 years before the events of the main game.
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is a game that has helped the Switch almost immediately become the console of choice for many JRPG fans, offering a stellar experience at the end of last year.
