Due to the low quality of today's footage, it's not clear if the shown build is the same one that has been shown during the Nintendo Direct from last month. Following the direct, some dedicated players put together some comparison screenshots which highlight the improvements from the E3 and January Presentation builds.

Last week, a couple of new Xenoblade Chronicles 2 screenshots emerged online, showcasing some new interface elements. Apparently, the bond between a Driver and a Blade will be shown with a line, and its appearance will indicate how strong the bond is.

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 launches on Nintendo Switch on December 1st in North America and Europe, with a Special Edition also launching on the same day. We will let you know more about the game as soon as possible, so stay tuned for all the latest news.
