Takahashi initially considered a turn-based battle system for the game, but decided to a real-time action system would work better. The focus of the development team was on telling a grand and sweeping story, and on having that reflect in the gameplay as well, due to which they decided on the game’s large and open-ended open world design. This led to morale in the development team at Monolith being at an all-time low, which resulted in Takahashi conceptualizing, pitching, and green-lighting the development of Xenoblade Chronicles, with the support of Nintendo.
However, due to the disappointing commercial performance of the first two Xenosaga games, it would decided that the series would end with the third instalment. Monolith had originally been in the midst of developing games in the Xenosaga series, which director Tetsuya Takahashi envisioned as a six-part series. Developmentĭevelopment on Xenoblade Chronicles began at Monolith Soft a year before the studio was acquired by Nintendo.
Xenoblade Chronicles is an open world action RPG developed by Monolith Soft and published by Nintendo.
