Although no additional details were shared, Takahashi said that the new RPG will “take on more new challenges” compared to previous Monolith Soft projects. At the time of this writing, it is not known if this new game will be another entry into the Xenoblade series, or something else entirely. Stay tuned for more updates as they come.
