However, that doesn’t mean the DLC is void of spoilers of the game its based on, but much rather the opposite. Torna takes place 500 years prior to the events of Xenoblade 2 (which I will refer to as XC2 from now on). This whole setup proves to be both a blessing and a curse, making Xenoblade 2: Torna ~ The Golden Country (one big mouthful) an extremely interesting experience to talk about. If Nintendo had come out of the gate announcing Torna to be a Xenoblade 2 spinoff rather than what it turned out to be, not a single person would’ve batted an eyelid.

This DLC is essentially its own unique game – not even requiring the original released to be played, if so desired.


In an extremely uncharacteristic move from Nintendo, Monolith Soft have come out with the Xenoblade franchise’s biggest piece of DLC ever – Torna ~ The Golden Country, a standalone expansion.
