I really dig your point here. I didn't really take the references to X in Future Redeemed to be serious connections (I'm still skeptical). But your reminder that basically the entire story of X is unreliable narration definitely opens up all kinds of possibilities that I'm getting really excited to revisit!
Imo the ending of X can be explained with parts of xenovlade 3 and 2. We see in x3 the dark matter look alike enemies from x, and how the origin works fits very well on how the x database was absorbed when the white whale crashes and Lao comes back. The white light could be the alien's "origin machine" activating or it could be claus explosion that transposed the white whale into a world under an origin machine.
My speculation of the connection between the games is the following: For some time the people on Earth were making explorations on space to possibly find a new planet to live because they feared an alien invasion. On the day the aliens attacked, they tried to fight them with the artifice showed in xc2 while some of the civilians tried to escape. As a last resort, Klaus tried to create a new world where they could live but ended up destroying the Earth. After this the events are what we know: A new world was created (xc1), part of Klaus reconstructed Earth into Alrest and the people that escaped landed on Mira.
Maybe what they thought were aliens but were mainly humans who were helped by the aliens in order to take the conduit, which led to a few humans escaping with the white whale being caught in the dimensional blast and being sent to another dimension like klaus said happened to others
@Kuhazan I was just making a speculation. I don't exactly want it to be like this. I havent played X and I know they said the earth was destroyed on the attack but they could have just seen the explosion and the white light but not understand its reason.
I'm also aware that this theory has its flaws. First it would be impossible to Rex and Elma to meet in xc2. Either 1 year in Mira is the same as like 500 years on Earth or the Archsage stuff is just non canon lore. Second in xc2 you can take Elma to the Land of Morytha and she won't say anything like "this is where we used to live" and third, in the trailer we don't see neither artifices fighting the aliens or the "World Tree". Anyways, sorry if my theory offended any of you.
I've been saying for years that the entire opening cutscene in X was told by Lin, who is reciting what the government told her, which we know by the end of X to be almost certainly a lie.
I love how everyone’s arguement is: “oh well the story doesn’t match exactly so like therefore obviously they can’t be connected because of differences.” When 1: the differences are very easy to fix in order to tie the games together and 2: Alvis xenoblade 1 -> Alvis Xenoblade 1 DE change exists…
I think the biggest indicator that Xenoblade Chronicles X will tie into the main series is simply the fact they are even doing a Definitive Edition for Switch at all.
Having them hold on to this port while trying to connect it with the current titles is such a brilliant idea. I remember them saying how hard and long it would take for this port to happen, remember how long the original took with very slow updates? Now here we are 30 hours later, it was randomly announced and coming in March 2025. They really learned their lesson. I wish Square would learn from this. I got a PS5 just for Kingdom Hearts 4, its now been 2 years since that teaser trailer.
may 16th in 2054 is a saturday, so this is not the year, the radio transmission takes place in, 2046 is the last year before that, where the 16th of may is a wednesday.
yeah and the white whale is said to hold 20 millions people, not 1.5m like in the radio, White whale are better ships, they got a couple of years more, the Klaus event and the alien invasion needs to be the same day
I feel like i remember the line "our native home was gone, swallowed in a shroud of light" from the originsl games introduction to New LA. am i insane or was it not always there?
My memory could just be doo doo, it's possible you're right but I don't remember it, I thought it was Elma that gave us our introduction to New La and in the trailer it sounded like Lin saying that line
@@JMulls i looked it up and the line is there in the original yeah, lin is the narrator throughout the game and she takes over during the sweeping shot of New LA before the title drop. For the record I still absolutely agree with your theory! I just felt like I was going insane for a bit because multiple people have said the line is new haha
There is a simpler way to connect X. Pretty big spoilers for X and all numbered Xenoblade games. The Future Redeemed "Project Exodus" fits much better to set up the galactic civilization in Xenosaga. As we hear on the radio there are already millions of colonists out there before Klaus' experiment, so there is no need for the White whale to believe they might be the only survivors. Is also hard to reconcile Xenosaga with X as saga has no major Alien galactic Civilizations while the X universe is full of them. Have Samaarians in X be humans from Klaus' world (potentially a bastardisation of "Saviourite" after a few million years) who were sent to a different universe. They use their advanced tech to create the Samaar Federation. X is pretty obvious on Samaarians being Humans of some sort who came from a different dimension (few people did the correct path in the one sidequest that explains this in X). Then after thousands or millions of years, the barriers between universes begin to weaken as the events of the numbered games happen. The Samaarians use their advanced tech to attempt to go back home, and become the "fog beasts" in Future Connected / Future Redeemed. The Telethia at the end of Future Connected also help explaining the Telethia Superboss on Mira. The Samaarians create a new Earth with a new humanity as a failsafe to keep their creations in line before they leave. Then the Story of X happens once the Samaarians have been gone for a while. This also leaves room for Nopon from XC1 to make it over to the X universe explaining the Monado references and calling humans HomHom. We have been told multiple times that Future Connected and Future Redeemed was supposed to tell us where the series was going, but we are not any closer to knowing what the Fog Beasts are other than that they are coming from a different dimension. Klaus was split between XC1 and XC2. Galea ended up in XC1. Where did the rest of humanity go? My answer XCX becoming Samaarians, and now they are coming back.
If they drop gnosis into xenoblade x..... 😅 The evacuation of earth is not a random event that just happened. The fight over earth did not trigger the colonization effort. It triggered an early launch but humanity was already working towards abandoning earth. You could make an argument that the death of terra in xenosaga leads to the opening scene of xenoblade x. Think master chief leaving the destruction reach as the opening scene of halo 1.
@neme6ben my theory is that basically. Original earth inhabitants are divided in: The ones that already were in the ships The ones on earth The former created the civilization in xenosaga. That stayed in the og dimension The later are divided in xeno 1, 2 and x worlds/dimensions Remember that earth (xeno2) isn't "located" in the space were it originally was. Both xeno 1 and 2 transpired in other dimensions, even though one happens on the planet earth. Now. That could align the chronology of xenosaga and xenoblade, since thousands of years have transpired by that point
The radio in 3 DLC is reference to the XenoSaga series, in that series original earth is lost for undisclosed reasons, they did a 5d chess by saying actually the lost mother planet was in 2 separate dimensions of 1 and 2, also since Xenoblade is connected o Xenosaga now its a whole lore string that there are no aliens in that universe, and you know, X has a ton of aliens.
Now granted they could just ret-con it all and say yeah aliens can be a thing but, I read that is just they're gonna tie into XenoSaga, and the next move of the game series is a few years of XenoSaga remakes. I dunno but its been like 2 decades by now since I played that so, its a welcome come back. Bandai Namco (they hold the copyright to XenoSaga) being on the copy right list for Xenoblade 3 DLC kinda hints at them being okay for Monlith to make them. I'm sure they'll get a cut on the sales of an IP they haven't touched in years.
@@saifisBut the “aliens” in Saga were from an upper domain. Not our actual universe. There’s a reason that only the Hilbert effect could damage Gnosis. They showed limited intelligence. The aliens in X are two civilizations fighting over earth?
@@10k-Noodles I would count those as "aliens" thats why I'm saying its unliky, even multi-verse in this world probably still is within the realms of the rules as well.
now there is.... one constant between everything in Xenoblade, the Nopon, my going head canon is they are linked to the Zohar and its how it is interfering with all Xenoblade worlds.
I 1000% believe it was originally intended to be a standalone but I think they want to bring it into canon hence some inconsistencies they can/will iron out
@@nimander5483 makes way more sense for xc2 to be connected than it does X. Maybe they will try and mangle a connection together but I don't think it needs to be part of it, what little of a story X has the extra bit could just to wrap the story up.
X's story is going to be heavily messaged into fitting into Xenoblade's cannon. It really depends where/when X takes place and what Mira really is. Side note, I think the Black Knight is Mythra's son because it would be fun
I believe Mira is Earth in the future, Mirai is Future in japanis, its earth after the events of Xeno 1 2 and 3 took place and the Earth that was lost between 2 dimentions merged again with all new evolution races provoked by Klaus, you can see reminisants of the titans and lost civilizations, also the nopon are native to mira, also Tatsu say that Humans are Homs. and you dont need even time travel to explain that as Humans in the White Whale have artificial bodies and in stasis, the 2 years drifting that is told in the story could be another lie. Or can be a time travel or a space anomaly, as the Ganglion mention in the game there is a space anomaly they cant escape and are trapped in Mira with the Human, Manon race also say they dont know how they got in Mira, they was in the middle of a travel cruise...
@@James.Hill. never had time travel in Xenoblade dispite one side quest in X where a guy clainms hes a human from the future an tries to make a time machine that never works. however. the Endless now in Aionios is a digitally simulated world. Origin was built not to resert the universe after the anighlation, but to run a simulation of Eons inside a signgle secound in the momment of the merge/anighlation. Xeno 3 have lots of hins giving that Aionios is a digital world. the vilains XYZ for example are letter of the 3D matrix coordinates, and lots of other stuff i could mention. The important is Origin only served to create a digital world of endless suffering, cause in the Real world the dimentions merged and nothing bad happened, as is shown in the post credits of Xeno 3, the scene where Noah is in the plaza, there is no time stopping neighter the image of the other plannet coming in the sky. And the post credidts of Future Redeemed, shows 2 eraths coming out of a blackhole thing and merging into One. Witch meins for the perspective of the people who whent in the Project Exodus before Klaus event Earth was vanished in a Black hole impossible to find witch is the plot of Xenosaga.
@ Hmm This is what I mean by X's story is going to have to be worked on quite a bit to fit in the cannon. X is going to be the very important bridge to the future of the series and it has to connect A LOT of lore
I think if we were also getting a saga remaster then there might be a case for it being canon as well. But your right, why add those lines and bits of info in Future Redeemed when they surely were already set to make this XCXDE
Yep exactly, no matter what inconsistencies people bring up, to me the biggest indicator is the fact they chose to reference X that extensively when the far easier thing to do is to simply not reference it to begin with. And with X being X, it's all about "we really know nothing do we" and was absolutely setting up some massive plot twists in a potential followup we just never ended up getting... unless that's down the pipeline
I think the hooded guy in the end have Malos voice actor, like I believe Origin in Xeno 3 is based on Malos core crystal cause Moebius that are the world of Aionios itself have pourple energy, Vita Skel and Ghost alien faction have the pourple energy, and theyr mothership looks a lot like origin, and Elma too is pourple, only thing IDK is the Ganglion are part of the Samarian who was fighting against the Ghost, still their objective is to recover Vita Skell.... ummm now thinking better Vita Skell is made out of a pourple core like Ghost and golden metal armor like the Samarian vosuals... intriging...
I dont see it being conneceted it doesn't make sence in X earth was destroyed by aliens while it disappierd in the klause trilogy from his experiment , its more likly xenosaga connects to the numberd trilogy and X is its own thing
There is a simple reason why X will be canon to the other titles: They made the Nopon Arch Sage dimension from the XC2 DLC pretty much canon at this point; It started with a fun little fan service in 2, then Shulk got access to the same dimension in XC DE, so Rex meeting Shulk there turned into something that actually could have happened, then Xenoblade 3 overlapped both dimensions anyway, and Future Redeemed was like "Yeah, of course Rex and Shulk absolutely know each other" without ever explaining how they learned about each other before. So there is room for their canonically first interaction was indeed the Nopon Arch sage dimension in the DLC. Now if XC 2 got the Arch Sage Dimension, and XC DE got the Arch Sage Dimension, and XC 3 got the Arch Sage Dimension, then XC X DE will most likely get an Arch Sage Dimension, and if only for adding the challenge mode itself. Which means Elma will likely enter the Arch Sage Dimension in X DE. Elma also entered that Dimension in XC 2 DLC and met Rex there. Same place where Rex met Shulk, and Rex meeting Shulk is pretty much canon at this point, so the place itself is pretty much canon at this point. So Elma visiting this place is also pretty much canon at this point, and Elma entering this place will likely be a thing in X DE. And if Elma can enter it in X DE, and Elma entering it was an element of XC 2 DLC, they will simply FORCE X into the timeline of the other three if they have to just to keep consistency here =P
I'll just be honest, if they are connecting it to xenosaga its not connecting to X, I don't think those two can connect without some kingdom hearts level explanation I'll watch the video before jumping to conclusions of course, I'll make an edit after
I don’t think I hear a lot of people talk about the Samaarians and how they came from another plane at the “dawn of the cosmos” and how they basically are humans.
I do think they'll connect X to the main series, and Xenosaga to some extent as well. Though I think I'll wait and see what this new story content for X DE is as I'm sure like Future Connected hinted at what they'd do with 3 they're probably going to do that with this extra story content.
100%, could be a reveal that something made the humans from the White Whale had their cognition messed with or something so they believed it was an alien war that destroyed the planet or something like that
Or! Or! The rebels were in response to only 10 million out of say 8 billion people will be able to leave and the rest left to alien occupation or worse. Seems a good reason to tear the system down.
@@JMullsExpect that Goetia talks to Luxaar about engaging the enemy (Ghosts) at earth and even mentions hunting down the humans across mutiple planets. The alien war really did happen over Earth as 2 of the 3 factions involved talk about it and they accounts line up with each other
Now I understand why some people get confused about the radio broadcast to be clear what the broadcast mention is back in the 2000s not on Earth 2.0 what I mean by this X takes place billions of years in the future that is not the same Earth. Mira is the original Earth but after billions of years it seems to be merging with different planets but it is not a normal planet mainly because of the Zohar, conduit, and Genesis literally changing its I'm going to assume existence. Now to be clear the radio broadcast is talking about things that are happening in the 2000s not what's happening in X because as I said at the beginning of x the narrator says it's four and a half billion years on Earth she's talking about Earth 2.0. Earth 2.0 was named after the original Earth when it disappeared for 4,000 years and since it disappeared they just renamed their planet Earth, now Earth 2.0 actually has two moons I did not notice this the first time cuz there was a flashback that showed Two Moons not one cuz it might be a space Colony or something else. Cuz I understand why people got confused cuz they're using the same dates but they're not the same dates the problem is Earth 2.0 is billions of years in the future while the radio broadcast is talking about stuff in the 2000s back on the original Earth because I've been replaying the games to pretty much remember everything and writes most of the stuff down that in the creators of the entire series pretty much want it in a neat little timeline: Xenoblade 1-3(2000s- 4000s) Xeno Saga ( 4000s - 10,000) Xeno Gears(4000s - 10,000) Xenoblade X( 4 1/2 billion years)
I did see a theory about this about Earth/Mira being the original Earth but is merged with five planets the theory is that multiple Earths have been merged. my theory is that Earth 2.0 which is not the original Earth merged Mira because the planet is not normal it's partially mechanical mainly from the remains of the Titans and certain giant robots that used to be human. The main point is that the Earth 2.0 that was destroyed was probably merged together similar to what happened in Xenoblade 3 cuz at the end the planets merged together and became the original Earth/ Mira because it did reappear after 4,000 years of missing. my theory is that Kosmos is probably about to explore the newly formed Earth. Cuz this happens exactly the same time at the end of Xeno Saga 3 it also would explain why the conduit disappeared cuz as I said before it might be a copy similar to Genesis, Aegis, the emulators, the red Zohar in Xeno gears cuz even the copies have a deep connection with the original Zohar which also cause earth to disappear along with the conduit and it probably disappeared cuz it ran out of energy and went back to the original Zohar( it is mostly just a theory by the way)
This is good. I’m thinking either A) somehow the Samaarian’s are simply Humanity’s direct ancestors, with other races being almost “subhuman” or X takes place WAY in the future after Earth is reformed by its two dimensional halves, the ships that left during exodus thousands of years ago became the samaarians and then came back to a newly reformed earth to help their cousins (who were now way technologically inferior to the Samaarians) escape the threat of the Ghosts (who are basically an evolved form of Xenosaga’s gnoses).
The claus incident space time nature makes it possible for the earth of x to be the same but of a different time since claus displaced so many people thru spacetime, the creators of the gangleon must have been transported to the beginning of the universe. Now that x de is official Im thinking the extra story will probably be after the cliffhanger of x
Not only that but we from from xenosaga that the zohars do exactly that with resetting the universe, one conduit improperly used displacing thru time and space including the beginning of time, it fits
May I talked about the theories about the Xeno series pretty much all the games are actually Canon and the radio broadcast literally mentioned everything from every single game as an example the coalition government were the ones to plan to leave Earth the original one/ Mira, and Xenoblade X( 4 and a half billion years in the future) the main reason I think this I already knew they're in the same universe just at different time periods, because that's what the developers of the games wanted this is not the first time this has been done( Mega Man/ Mega Man X, Zelda, the trail series and the legend of Heroes series ,Ys too.) and I know there are contradictions but keep in mind this game was made pretty much after Xenoblade 1, and we're planning on making X a sequel but change their minds because Xenoblade 1-3 have deep connections with Xenoblade X: one: the radio broadcast mentioned the coalition government and the coalition government in X are its descendants but billions of years in the future. 2:Mira is the original Earth but it seems to be merged with other Earths probably from the pocket dimension which did happen before and it probably happened again, because Xenoblade 3 It's a combination of two worlds and looks very similar to Mira/ original Earth the creators of the series did that on purpose they pretty much , use aspects of X and put it in Xenoblade three on purpose they're pretty much giving you hints they're in the same universe there have been hints and cameos that have been shoved into these games repeatedly and they expected fans to figure this out on their own. 3: the Ganglion, might be related to the humans from Earth / Mira and might be descendants from one of the humans and Xenoblade 2, because the great one they mentioned is the architect now I didn't realize this back then because I just assume X was at the end of the timeline but since three came out it does have a connection to it. Now Samaar Federation which control pretty much multiple galaxies and are descendants of humans but billions of years in the future because they use the same Federation meaning their ancestors change the name. Now I have a theory about the ghost( purple mechanical aliens that destroyed Earth 2.0) and Genesis I think that ship they were using is a remnant or similar technology to Genesis and pretty much the evolved from Mobius after billions of years my theory is they want to assimilate the original DNA of humans for some reason similar to what they did to be soldiers and Xenoblade 3 but differently
It's also possible they want to connect X to the main canon for the sole reason to not have 2 xenoblade series running in parallel, I mean it's been 10 years and at this point we should've got a X2 but since the Wii U flopped it changed their plans so Takahashi may reunite them all to advance the series to new directions in the future. And also it wouldn't be so bad of an idea, they can't divide their teams infinitely and work on XC, XCX, their new rpg saga and why not even Xenosaga if we get a remake or smthg all at the same time or else we would have to wait 10 years between each new entry and humans don't live long x) Takahashi's almost 60. AND if X is connected to the rest of the series *SPOILER WARNING FOR FUTURE REDEEMED* I think the light we saw at the game in the shot after the worlds fuse is in fact the white whale and not KOS-MOS, it could be possible that Earth dispawn in light after Klaus experiment and so Mira could be the reunited Earth after the remerge. And you will tell me.. how the heck is that possible, there's 3 months between their departure from Earth and their arrival in Mira but if I recall, the archsage nopon states that the flow of time in XC and XCX worlds are different. The only problem with that is that the archsage nopon said that he tweaked parameters for that to work but hey, they're nopons, they're weird and they do things that don't make sense, why are they here in xenoblade 3 not concerned by Origin or why are they in Mira, that, we don't know-pon. But it could mean that Alrest and Alcamoth continents are there, on Mira too. It's can of a stretch but I could Takahashi writing something like that, if he doesn't change anything in the actual story of XCX, but like they say, there's something off about this planet. Either way, I'm hype to see what Monolith got in store for us this time.
I’m not ready to dismiss any game in the series nor am I ready to make a recursive time loop theory that creates multiple modern day earths that get destroyed. The intentions are there and I doubt they’d make a completely convoluted answer that would more than likely alienate the audience. If everything is unified as one universe from the starting point of July 2054 (or the Zohar discovered in the 2020’s) I think that it’s just that. Project Exodus was going on for years with almost a dozen ships already off world without issue (likely to establish Neo Jerusalem in Saga) what we see in X is a final wave as time was up and the survivors the few there were likely never made it to meet the ones who established Neo Jerusalem. Klaus’ experiment wiped the planet clean and split it into multiple pocket universes with intense combat happening at the time with Salvador’s banging at his door and falling ghosts causing anti matter explosions (which likely would be only on one side of the planet considering where the ghosts and ganglion clashed) Now the big issues people bring up are the lack of alien combat during the experiment flashbacks as well as the lack of intelligent alien life in saga. It’s hard to reconcile yet what’s shown in Future Redeemed is trying so hard to say something that those reasons to dismiss the connections shouldn’t be ironclad Personally I’m going with Mira being an echo of some sort of Aionios though there can be potential ideas of it being the recombined world in some future state. Only reason it has to have some connection is the Nopon are too aware of Bionis things to not be connected
In the end I think they gonna connect everything.. Even If it contradict somehow they gonna make it like what they did to Alvis "Key" to XC DE.. And I'm pretty sure they gonna change a little bit of some Alien Invasion scenes and Earth Destruction to match with Klaus Experiment in XC Numbered series.. And I'm pretty sure they are gonna connect it to XC2 Weird characteristic of the character.. People with Animal Ears and grey elf with long lives will be retconed as an alien aren't they? They looks alien enough haha.. In the end.. I think your theory gonna be correct.. But I hope they did not delete few of the interesting game mechanic in XCX tough.. That was fun to play..
They are more likely to be setting up for a sequel than anything else. I don't think they would be giving teasers and more story about the black knight if not plus Klaus saga is done so they could just make the X storyline the next saga and we get some form of Takahashi's lightnovel for X plus Koh Kojima post 2 said he wanted to make an XC3 and XCX2 and we got XC3, FR, XCXDE now. It only makes sense to try and make the project you have always held most dear a reality when its a possibility now.
"The Date is May 16th , and it dosnt line up with the date Lin says in the XCX intro July 2054 AD" - Its funny how people put this much importance on dates between 2 Video Games compared to the Real Life Calendar ... i never understood these people , why even bother comparing Games that have Multiverse , Megafloats , Space Lifts , Orbital Stations , Space Crafts and other insane tech that dosnt exist in Real Life with the actual Real Life Calendar ... Well i guess now Takahashi can just change the date in XCXDE to put an end to this. But even if he dosnt its still fine because they dont have to line up with the Real Life Calendar. Its funny you go on about that White Light in the Trailer ... but that was already in the Original XCX , people just love to forget. Narrator Lin in the Original XCX game says : In the intro cutscene she says Earth was Destroyed. Then when you and Elma arrive in NLA for the first time and the cutscene plays , Narrator Lin says earth was swallowed in a shroud of white light. And at the end of the game she says , "everyone else says Earth died that day" , but she dosnt believe it and one day she wants to go out there , looking for it. And then in the after credits scene where everything you thought you knew turns out to be false ... Not to mention Yelvs Affinity Missions that lead to the player discovering that false / implantet memories is actually a thing in XCX. My 2 cents are : The games have always been linked in the same timeline starting from the same Earth. Yes XCX does not fit into the Klaus Trilogy , because the White Whale left earth and because of that didnt get sucked into the same pocket dimension were XC1+2+3 take place but into a different one. But the point of origin , Earth , was still the same ... the plots of the games just dont cross each other before the plot on XC123 gets resolved and the worlds merge back together and leave the Pocket Dimension. As to when X actually meets up with the rest of them , i have no clue. Thats up for future content.
I got a bunch of theories for you: What if what we thought we knew was that it was Aliens that caused Project: Exodus. What if it was the Saviorite Rebels mentioned in Xenoblade 2, what if it was a global war and Klaus put Exodus forward to keep humanity intact as he ran his experiment, like a Plan B. Maybe Mira is a third universe separate from Keves, Agnes and Aionios. What if Xenoblade 4 follows a new protagonist from the newly merged world that perhaps fused into the Mira universe follows your theory of the interlinked worlds expiring as the story, and discovers Mira exists and holds a secret that'll be revealed in a Xenoblade X2 or Xenoblade 5.
Your entire premise relies basically on lynn saying the earth was consumed by a white light, and i have to ask if this is a new line or one that existed before. If the latter, i dont know if this theory has legs. Fun watch regardless
Spoilers I find these tie-ins to be a bit sloppy. The game gives a very nice out with the fact that the Samaarians arrived in Xs universe at the "dawn of time". They created the humans left there (not hard to buy because of the core crystals which were conceived for another surgical reasons). All they need to do is have X take place FAR in the future in an alternate universe. That gives enough time for X's humans to evolve, establish their own "Earth" and then leave behind a new generation of modified human beings whom are toxic to the ganglion.
Now the game creators they literally made that🤔🤔🤔 radio broadcast 🤔🤔🤔🤔on purpose to give Us hints that they're in the same universe which means it is Canon cuz it's in the game, cuz it mentions not only vector, it mentions a ship that literally took 4,000 years to go to the edge of the Galaxy which leads Xeno Gears, and Vector is a company that still existed in the future, and as I mentioned a couple times the coalition government back in the 2000s came up with the plan to leave Earth the original one and it took them 4,000 years to establish the Galaxy Federation which eventually was partially destroyed by Ark of abel which is a giant Gnosis which can eat planets in a destroyed half of the universe. Because Xenoblade X is Canon the radio broadcast confirmed this, the creator of the entire series original plan was to create six games that exist in the same universe , but at different time periods .Which he has already done it's just he added more games to his plan. Developers literally put a bunch of cameos, hints that they're in the same universe, and finally the radio broadcast which confirms that all the games are Canon. cuz I know they have the redcon a couple things but keep in mind X was made after Xenoblade 1 that's why there are contradictions which they have to fix obviously that plan is not perfect, but they already made the damn game now they have to fix the continuity just to fix it cuz sometimes it does happen sometimes game companies make a game and make a new game that sort of contradicts the old game.😮😮😮😰😰😰😰
"New Story Elements" Like maybe finishing the story???? One can hope.... X had one of the worst stories that felt like it was just thrown together last min and do not get me started on that ending.
@@JMulls Then again, this is MONOLITHSOFT we're talking about. Are we really gonna assume they WOULDN'T go to those lengths? Still, maybe Project Exodus went on for 8 years before Earth got yeeted, or maybe Xenoblade X is connected in a different way. Personally, I theorize that Xenoblade X takes place long AFTER Xenoblade and Xenosaga, after Recurrence. Play Xenosaga to know more ^-^
@@hyliastone286 Yeah it's like even if they did look at the calendar and it's a few years before the date from X, it still kind of works just the time table changes a bit imo. They COULD be playing the long game and X is in a completely different time period I just really think they are going the route of Xeno as an IP being the tale of humanity from different parts of the universe/galaxy. Saga being those away from Earth during the Klaus split, blade being those stuck on earth, X being those who managed to get away
I love how “Releasing on a random Tuesday morning” is becoming a trend when talking about this trailer.
I really dig your point here. I didn't really take the references to X in Future Redeemed to be serious connections (I'm still skeptical). But your reminder that basically the entire story of X is unreliable narration definitely opens up all kinds of possibilities that I'm getting really excited to revisit!
Imo the ending of X can be explained with parts of xenovlade 3 and 2.
We see in x3 the dark matter look alike enemies from x, and how the origin works fits very well on how the x database was absorbed when the white whale crashes and Lao comes back.
The white light could be the alien's "origin machine" activating or it could be claus explosion that transposed the white whale into a world under an origin machine.
My speculation of the connection between the games is the following: For some time the people on Earth were making explorations on space to possibly find a new planet to live because they feared an alien invasion. On the day the aliens attacked, they tried to fight them with the artifice showed in xc2 while some of the civilians tried to escape. As a last resort, Klaus tried to create a new world where they could live but ended up destroying the Earth. After this the events are what we know: A new world was created (xc1), part of Klaus reconstructed Earth into Alrest and the people that escaped landed on Mira.
But that would be a retcon of a retcon...I hope not.
Maybe what they thought were aliens but were mainly humans who were helped by the aliens in order to take the conduit, which led to a few humans escaping with the white whale being caught in the dimensional blast and being sent to another dimension like klaus said happened to others
@Kuhazan I was just making a speculation. I don't exactly want it to be like this. I havent played X and I know they said the earth was destroyed on the attack but they could have just seen the explosion and the white light but not understand its reason.
I'm also aware that this theory has its flaws. First it would be impossible to Rex and Elma to meet in xc2. Either 1 year in Mira is the same as like 500 years on Earth or the Archsage stuff is just non canon lore. Second in xc2 you can take Elma to the Land of Morytha and she won't say anything like "this is where we used to live" and third, in the trailer we don't see neither artifices fighting the aliens or the "World Tree". Anyways, sorry if my theory offended any of you.
@@xavieroliveira8653 unless the archmage summons through space and time?
I've been saying for years that the entire opening cutscene in X was told by Lin, who is reciting what the government told her, which we know by the end of X to be almost certainly a lie.
Everyone repeats that same story throughout the game though.. including Elma who should know the most.
@Quintessence4444 Well it's pretty obvious Elma was in the dark for a lot of things, but even so she's kept secrets before.
I love how everyone’s arguement is: “oh well the story doesn’t match exactly so like therefore obviously they can’t be connected because of differences.” When
1: the differences are very easy to fix in order to tie the games together and
2: Alvis xenoblade 1 -> Alvis Xenoblade 1 DE change exists…
I think the biggest indicator that Xenoblade Chronicles X will tie into the main series is simply the fact they are even doing a Definitive Edition for Switch at all.
Im a firm believer that the Zohar ended up in Mira and its the reason people are still alive.
You’re forgetting about the war against the Saviorite Rebels if we are tying this into the numbered games
Having them hold on to this port while trying to connect it with the current titles is such a brilliant idea. I remember them saying how hard and long it would take for this port to happen, remember how long the original took with very slow updates? Now here we are 30 hours later, it was randomly announced and coming in March 2025. They really learned their lesson. I wish Square would learn from this. I got a PS5 just for Kingdom Hearts 4, its now been 2 years since that teaser trailer.
7:46
the ninth vessel, departing in *july*
and you mentioned not too long before that the attack on Earth in X happens.... in July.
My only Desire would be for Squaresoft to relinquish control of Xenogears.. and have Monolith give us the full saga we deserve!
may 16th in 2054 is a saturday, so this is not the year, the radio transmission takes place in, 2046 is the last year before that, where the 16th of may is a wednesday.
yeah and the white whale is said to hold 20 millions people, not 1.5m like in the radio, White whale are better ships, they got a couple of years more, the Klaus event and the alien invasion needs to be the same day
I feel like i remember the line "our native home was gone, swallowed in a shroud of light" from the originsl games introduction to New LA. am i insane or was it not always there?
I remember that being the original line too.
My memory could just be doo doo, it's possible you're right but I don't remember it, I thought it was Elma that gave us our introduction to New La and in the trailer it sounded like Lin saying that line
It's the same line. It was not altered. It's the same line in both
@@JMulls i looked it up and the line is there in the original yeah, lin is the narrator throughout the game and she takes over during the sweeping shot of New LA before the title drop. For the record I still absolutely agree with your theory! I just felt like I was going insane for a bit because multiple people have said the line is new haha
It will be for sure a part of the story from all the games. That’s 100% for sure.
There is a simpler way to connect X.
Pretty big spoilers for X and all numbered Xenoblade games.
The Future Redeemed "Project Exodus" fits much better to set up the galactic civilization in Xenosaga. As we hear on the radio there are already millions of colonists out there before Klaus' experiment, so there is no need for the White whale to believe they might be the only survivors. Is also hard to reconcile Xenosaga with X as saga has no major Alien galactic Civilizations while the X universe is full of them.
Have Samaarians in X be humans from Klaus' world (potentially a bastardisation of "Saviourite" after a few million years) who were sent to a different universe. They use their advanced tech to create the Samaar Federation. X is pretty obvious on Samaarians being Humans of some sort who came from a different dimension (few people did the correct path in the one sidequest that explains this in X).
Then after thousands or millions of years, the barriers between universes begin to weaken as the events of the numbered games happen.
The Samaarians use their advanced tech to attempt to go back home, and become the "fog beasts" in Future Connected / Future Redeemed.
The Telethia at the end of Future Connected also help explaining the Telethia Superboss on Mira.
The Samaarians create a new Earth with a new humanity as a failsafe to keep their creations in line before they leave.
Then the Story of X happens once the Samaarians have been gone for a while.
This also leaves room for Nopon from XC1 to make it over to the X universe explaining the Monado references and calling humans HomHom.
We have been told multiple times that Future Connected and Future Redeemed was supposed to tell us where the series was going, but we are not any closer to knowing what the Fog Beasts are other than that they are coming from a different dimension. Klaus was split between XC1 and XC2. Galea ended up in XC1. Where did the rest of humanity go? My answer XCX becoming Samaarians, and now they are coming back.
You have the wildest accent I've ever heard. From Where could you possibly be?
If they drop gnosis into xenoblade x..... 😅
The evacuation of earth is not a random event that just happened. The fight over earth did not trigger the colonization effort. It triggered an early launch but humanity was already working towards abandoning earth. You could make an argument that the death of terra in xenosaga leads to the opening scene of xenoblade x. Think master chief leaving the destruction reach as the opening scene of halo 1.
Wasn't the fog king from xenoblade 1 already a big indication of it?
I don't think saga is really attached here, it's just for references
I can definitely see monolith making it fit into the rest of the series
@neme6ben my theory is that basically.
Original earth inhabitants are divided in:
The ones that already were in the ships
The ones on earth
The former created the civilization in xenosaga. That stayed in the og dimension
The later are divided in xeno 1, 2 and x worlds/dimensions
Remember that earth (xeno2) isn't "located" in the space were it originally was. Both xeno 1 and 2 transpired in other dimensions, even though one happens on the planet earth.
Now. That could align the chronology of xenosaga and xenoblade, since thousands of years have transpired by that point
The radio in 3 DLC is reference to the XenoSaga series, in that series original earth is lost for undisclosed reasons, they did a 5d chess by saying actually the lost mother planet was in 2 separate dimensions of 1 and 2, also since Xenoblade is connected o Xenosaga now its a whole lore string that there are no aliens in that universe, and you know, X has a ton of aliens.
Now granted they could just ret-con it all and say yeah aliens can be a thing but, I read that is just they're gonna tie into XenoSaga, and the next move of the game series is a few years of XenoSaga remakes. I dunno but its been like 2 decades by now since I played that so, its a welcome come back. Bandai Namco (they hold the copyright to XenoSaga) being on the copy right list for Xenoblade 3 DLC kinda hints at them being okay for Monlith to make them. I'm sure they'll get a cut on the sales of an IP they haven't touched in years.
@@saifisBut the “aliens” in Saga were from an upper domain. Not our actual universe. There’s a reason that only the Hilbert effect could damage Gnosis. They showed limited intelligence. The aliens in X are two civilizations fighting over earth?
It’s gonna be hard to connect these things unless they go full Gnosticism.
@@10k-Noodles I would count those as "aliens" thats why I'm saying its unliky, even multi-verse in this world probably still is within the realms of the rules as well.
now there is.... one constant between everything in Xenoblade, the Nopon, my going head canon is they are linked to the Zohar and its how it is interfering with all Xenoblade worlds.
I was watching a player essence video and he read a description of the game, which said that it is a standalone story.
I 1000% believe it was originally intended to be a standalone but I think they want to bring it into canon hence some inconsistencies they can/will iron out
They said that about XC2 as well before it launched.
@@nimander5483 makes way more sense for xc2 to be connected than it does X. Maybe they will try and mangle a connection together but I don't think it needs to be part of it, what little of a story X has the extra bit could just to wrap the story up.
X's story is going to be heavily messaged into fitting into Xenoblade's cannon. It really depends where/when X takes place and what Mira really is.
Side note, I think the Black Knight is Mythra's son because it would be fun
I believe Mira is Earth in the future, Mirai is Future in japanis, its earth after the events of Xeno 1 2 and 3 took place and the Earth that was lost between 2 dimentions merged again with all new evolution races provoked by Klaus, you can see reminisants of the titans and lost civilizations, also the nopon are native to mira, also Tatsu say that Humans are Homs. and you dont need even time travel to explain that as Humans in the White Whale have artificial bodies and in stasis, the 2 years drifting that is told in the story could be another lie. Or can be a time travel or a space anomaly, as the Ganglion mention in the game there is a space anomaly they cant escape and are trapped in Mira with the Human, Manon race also say they dont know how they got in Mira, they was in the middle of a travel cruise...
@ There is either some time loop shenanigans going on or Mira is part of The Endless Now and will be the connection from X to XC
@@James.Hill. never had time travel in Xenoblade dispite one side quest in X where a guy clainms hes a human from the future an tries to make a time machine that never works. however. the Endless now in Aionios is a digitally simulated world. Origin was built not to resert the universe after the anighlation, but to run a simulation of Eons inside a signgle secound in the momment of the merge/anighlation. Xeno 3 have lots of hins giving that Aionios is a digital world. the vilains XYZ for example are letter of the 3D matrix coordinates, and lots of other stuff i could mention. The important is Origin only served to create a digital world of endless suffering, cause in the Real world the dimentions merged and nothing bad happened, as is shown in the post credits of Xeno 3, the scene where Noah is in the plaza, there is no time stopping neighter the image of the other plannet coming in the sky. And the post credidts of Future Redeemed, shows 2 eraths coming out of a blackhole thing and merging into One. Witch meins for the perspective of the people who whent in the Project Exodus before Klaus event Earth was vanished in a Black hole impossible to find witch is the plot of Xenosaga.
@ Hmm This is what I mean by X's story is going to have to be worked on quite a bit to fit in the cannon. X is going to be the very important bridge to the future of the series and it has to connect A LOT of lore
mira is the reconnected earth after future connected...god knows how much time has passed
I think if we were also getting a saga remaster then there might be a case for it being canon as well. But your right, why add those lines and bits of info in Future Redeemed when they surely were already set to make this XCXDE
Yep exactly, no matter what inconsistencies people bring up, to me the biggest indicator is the fact they chose to reference X that extensively when the far easier thing to do is to simply not reference it to begin with. And with X being X, it's all about "we really know nothing do we" and was absolutely setting up some massive plot twists in a potential followup we just never ended up getting... unless that's down the pipeline
@JMulls Facts
I think the hooded guy in the end have Malos voice actor, like I believe Origin in Xeno 3 is based on Malos core crystal cause Moebius that are the world of Aionios itself have pourple energy, Vita Skel and Ghost alien faction have the pourple energy, and theyr mothership looks a lot like origin, and Elma too is pourple, only thing IDK is the Ganglion are part of the Samarian who was fighting against the Ghost, still their objective is to recover Vita Skell.... ummm now thinking better Vita Skell is made out of a pourple core like Ghost and golden metal armor like the Samarian vosuals... intriging...
I dont see it being conneceted it doesn't make sence in X earth was destroyed by aliens while it disappierd in the klause trilogy from his experiment , its more likly xenosaga connects to the numberd trilogy and X is its own thing
I would very much prefer that
@tonyknighton4019 agreed , connecting xenosaga to the numberd trilogy is alot easier than trying X
Honestly adding X to the canon would be pretty hype. 4 could end up being mostly a sequel to X now and still have it connected to the og trilogy
Ready to Starlight Duster on fools.
I can't wait for the new story content. I have been dying to know what has happened for so long.
There is a simple reason why X will be canon to the other titles: They made the Nopon Arch Sage dimension from the XC2 DLC pretty much canon at this point; It
started with a fun little fan service in 2, then Shulk got access to the same dimension in XC DE, so Rex meeting Shulk there turned into something that actually could have happened, then Xenoblade 3 overlapped both dimensions anyway, and Future Redeemed was like "Yeah, of course Rex and Shulk absolutely know each other" without ever explaining how they learned about each other before. So there is room for their canonically first interaction was indeed the Nopon Arch sage dimension in the DLC.
Now if XC 2 got the Arch Sage Dimension, and XC DE got the Arch Sage Dimension, and XC 3 got the Arch Sage Dimension, then XC X DE will most likely get an Arch Sage Dimension, and if only for adding the challenge mode itself. Which means Elma will likely enter the Arch Sage Dimension in X DE. Elma also entered that Dimension in XC 2 DLC and met Rex there. Same place where Rex met Shulk, and Rex meeting Shulk is pretty much canon at this point, so the place itself is pretty much canon at this point. So Elma visiting this place is also pretty much canon at this point, and Elma entering this place will likely be a thing in X DE. And if Elma can enter it in X DE, and Elma entering it was an element of XC 2 DLC, they will simply FORCE X into the timeline of the other three if they have to just to keep consistency here =P
I should probably play Future Redeemed finally so I can follow all this speculation during the wait, shouldn't I.
I'll just be honest, if they are connecting it to xenosaga its not connecting to X, I don't think those two can connect without some kingdom hearts level explanation
I'll watch the video before jumping to conclusions of course, I'll make an edit after
Aren't we at Kingdom Hearts levels already?
I don’t think I hear a lot of people talk about the Samaarians and how they came from another plane at the “dawn of the cosmos” and how they basically are humans.
I do think they'll connect X to the main series, and Xenosaga to some extent as well. Though I think I'll wait and see what this new story content for X DE is as I'm sure like Future Connected hinted at what they'd do with 3 they're probably going to do that with this extra story content.
Everything we thought we knew wasn't wrong though? Only the inside of the lifehold doesn't make sense.
the could retcon the aliens to been the rebels
100%, could be a reveal that something made the humans from the White Whale had their cognition messed with or something so they believed it was an alien war that destroyed the planet or something like that
Or! Or! The rebels were in response to only 10 million out of say 8 billion people will be able to leave and the rest left to alien occupation or worse. Seems a good reason to tear the system down.
@@JMullsExpect that Goetia talks to Luxaar about engaging the enemy (Ghosts) at earth and even mentions hunting down the humans across mutiple planets.
The alien war really did happen over Earth as 2 of the 3 factions involved talk about it and they accounts line up with each other
Now I understand why some people get confused about the radio broadcast to be clear what the broadcast mention is back in the 2000s not on Earth 2.0 what I mean by this X takes place billions of years in the future that is not the same Earth. Mira is the original Earth but after billions of years it seems to be merging with different planets but it is not a normal planet mainly because of the Zohar, conduit, and Genesis literally changing its I'm going to assume existence.
Now to be clear the radio broadcast is talking about things that are happening in the 2000s not what's happening in X because as I said at the beginning of x the narrator says it's four and a half billion years on Earth she's talking about Earth 2.0.
Earth 2.0 was named after the original Earth when it disappeared for 4,000 years and since it disappeared they just renamed their planet Earth, now Earth 2.0 actually has two moons I did not notice this the first time cuz there was a flashback that showed Two Moons not one cuz it might be a space Colony or something else.
Cuz I understand why people got confused cuz they're using the same dates but they're not the same dates the problem is Earth 2.0 is billions of years in the future while the radio broadcast is talking about stuff in the 2000s back on the original Earth because I've been replaying the games to pretty much remember everything and writes most of the stuff down that in the creators of the entire series pretty much want it in a neat little timeline:
Xenoblade 1-3(2000s- 4000s)
Xeno Saga ( 4000s - 10,000)
Xeno Gears(4000s - 10,000)
Xenoblade X( 4 1/2 billion years)
XENOBLADE HYPE I CAN'T HOLD MY EXCITEMENT IN
It’s a theory, a game theory!
I did see a theory about this about Earth/Mira being the original Earth but is merged with five planets the theory is that multiple Earths have been merged. my theory is that Earth 2.0 which is not the original Earth merged Mira because the planet is not normal it's partially mechanical mainly from the remains of the Titans and certain giant robots that used to be human.
The main point is that the Earth 2.0 that was destroyed was probably merged together similar to what happened in Xenoblade 3 cuz at the end the planets merged together and became the original Earth/ Mira because it did reappear after 4,000 years of missing.
my theory is that Kosmos is probably about to explore the newly formed Earth. Cuz this happens exactly the same time at the end of Xeno Saga 3 it also would explain why the conduit disappeared cuz as I said before it might be a copy similar to Genesis, Aegis, the emulators, the red Zohar in Xeno gears cuz even the copies have a deep connection with the original Zohar which also cause earth to disappear along with the conduit and it probably disappeared cuz it ran out of energy and went back to the original Zohar( it is mostly just a theory by the way)
This is good. I’m thinking either A) somehow the Samaarian’s are simply Humanity’s direct ancestors, with other races being almost “subhuman” or X takes place WAY in the future after Earth is reformed by its two dimensional halves, the ships that left during exodus thousands of years ago became the samaarians and then came back to a newly reformed earth to help their cousins (who were now way technologically inferior to the Samaarians) escape the threat of the Ghosts (who are basically an evolved form of Xenosaga’s gnoses).
The claus incident space time nature makes it possible for the earth of x to be the same but of a different time since claus displaced so many people thru spacetime, the creators of the gangleon must have been transported to the beginning of the universe.
Now that x de is official Im thinking the extra story will probably be after the cliffhanger of x
Not only that but we from from xenosaga that the zohars do exactly that with resetting the universe, one conduit improperly used displacing thru time and space including the beginning of time, it fits

Thank you! Hope you enjoy the channel! 🙂
The Fantasy is Real!
Xenoblade X may just be a simulation in the event of an alien invasion?
May I talked about the theories about the Xeno series pretty much all the games are actually Canon and the radio broadcast literally mentioned everything from every single game as an example the coalition government were the ones to plan to leave Earth the original one/ Mira, and Xenoblade X( 4 and a half billion years in the future) the main reason I think this I already knew they're in the same universe just at different time periods, because that's what the developers of the games wanted this is not the first time this has been done( Mega Man/ Mega Man X, Zelda, the trail series and the legend of Heroes series ,Ys too.)
and I know there are contradictions but keep in mind this game was made pretty much after Xenoblade 1, and we're planning on making X a sequel but change their minds because Xenoblade 1-3 have deep connections with Xenoblade X: one: the radio broadcast mentioned the coalition government and the coalition government in X are its descendants but billions of years in the future.
2:Mira is the original Earth but it seems to be merged with other Earths probably from the pocket dimension which did happen before and it probably happened again, because Xenoblade 3 It's a combination of two worlds and looks very similar to Mira/ original Earth the creators of the series did that on purpose they pretty much , use aspects of X and put it in Xenoblade three on purpose they're pretty much giving you hints they're in the same universe there have been hints and cameos that have been shoved into these games repeatedly and they expected fans to figure this out on their own.
3: the Ganglion, might be related to the humans from Earth / Mira and might be descendants from one of the humans and Xenoblade 2, because the great one they mentioned is the architect now I didn't realize this back then because I just assume X was at the end of the timeline but since three came out it does have a connection to it. Now Samaar Federation which control pretty much multiple galaxies and are descendants of humans but billions of years in the future because they use the same Federation meaning their ancestors change the name.
Now I have a theory about the ghost( purple mechanical aliens that destroyed Earth 2.0) and Genesis I think that ship they were using is a remnant or similar technology to Genesis and pretty much the evolved from Mobius after billions of years my theory is they want to assimilate the original DNA of humans for some reason similar to what they did to be soldiers and Xenoblade 3 but differently
It's also possible they want to connect X to the main canon for the sole reason to not have 2 xenoblade series running in parallel, I mean it's been 10 years and at this point we should've got a X2 but since the Wii U flopped it changed their plans so Takahashi may reunite them all to advance the series to new directions in the future.
And also it wouldn't be so bad of an idea, they can't divide their teams infinitely and work on XC, XCX, their new rpg saga and why not even Xenosaga if we get a remake or smthg all at the same time or else we would have to wait 10 years between each new entry and humans don't live long x) Takahashi's almost 60.
AND if X is connected to the rest of the series *SPOILER WARNING FOR FUTURE REDEEMED* I think the light we saw at the game in the shot after the worlds fuse is in fact the white whale and not KOS-MOS, it could be possible that Earth dispawn in light after Klaus experiment and so Mira could be the reunited Earth after the remerge.
And you will tell me.. how the heck is that possible, there's 3 months between their departure from Earth and their arrival in Mira but if I recall, the archsage nopon states that the flow of time in XC and XCX worlds are different.
The only problem with that is that the archsage nopon said that he tweaked parameters for that to work but hey, they're nopons, they're weird and they do things that don't make sense, why are they here in xenoblade 3 not concerned by Origin or why are they in Mira, that, we don't know-pon. But it could mean that Alrest and Alcamoth continents are there, on Mira too.
It's can of a stretch but I could Takahashi writing something like that, if he doesn't change anything in the actual story of XCX, but like they say, there's something off about this planet. Either way, I'm hype to see what Monolith got in store for us this time.
I’m not ready to dismiss any game in the series nor am I ready to make a recursive time loop theory that creates multiple modern day earths that get destroyed. The intentions are there and I doubt they’d make a completely convoluted answer that would more than likely alienate the audience. If everything is unified as one universe from the starting point of July 2054 (or the Zohar discovered in the 2020’s) I think that it’s just that. Project Exodus was going on for years with almost a dozen ships already off world without issue (likely to establish Neo Jerusalem in Saga) what we see in X is a final wave as time was up and the survivors the few there were likely never made it to meet the ones who established Neo Jerusalem. Klaus’ experiment wiped the planet clean and split it into multiple pocket universes with intense combat happening at the time with Salvador’s banging at his door and falling ghosts causing anti matter explosions (which likely would be only on one side of the planet considering where the ghosts and ganglion clashed)
Now the big issues people bring up are the lack of alien combat during the experiment flashbacks as well as the lack of intelligent alien life in saga. It’s hard to reconcile yet what’s shown in Future Redeemed is trying so hard to say something that those reasons to dismiss the connections shouldn’t be ironclad
Personally I’m going with Mira being an echo of some sort of Aionios though there can be potential ideas of it being the recombined world in some future state. Only reason it has to have some connection is the Nopon are too aware of Bionis things to not be connected
In the end I think they gonna connect everything.. Even If it contradict somehow they gonna make it like what they did to Alvis "Key" to XC DE.. And I'm pretty sure they gonna change a little bit of some Alien Invasion scenes and Earth Destruction to match with Klaus Experiment in XC Numbered series..
And I'm pretty sure they are gonna connect it to XC2 Weird characteristic of the character.. People with Animal Ears and grey elf with long lives will be retconed as an alien aren't they? They looks alien enough haha..
In the end.. I think your theory gonna be correct..
But I hope they did not delete few of the interesting game mechanic in XCX tough.. That was fun to play..
They are more likely to be setting up for a sequel than anything else. I don't think they would be giving teasers and more story about the black knight if not plus Klaus saga is done so they could just make the X storyline the next saga and we get some form of Takahashi's lightnovel for X plus Koh Kojima post 2 said he wanted to make an XC3 and XCX2 and we got XC3, FR, XCXDE now. It only makes sense to try and make the project you have always held most dear a reality when its a possibility now.
If they're connected wouldn't that mean Xenoblade takes place in our universe?
I hope you're right about it being a switch 2 launch game
Hmm i hope its not conect to xenoblade 1-3, i feel thats already complete the saga
"The Date is May 16th , and it dosnt line up with the date Lin says in the XCX intro July 2054 AD"
- Its funny how people put this much importance on dates between 2 Video Games compared to the Real Life Calendar ... i never understood these people , why even bother comparing Games that have Multiverse , Megafloats , Space Lifts , Orbital Stations , Space Crafts and other insane tech that dosnt exist in Real Life with the actual Real Life Calendar ...
Well i guess now Takahashi can just change the date in XCXDE to put an end to this. But even if he dosnt its still fine because they dont have to line up with the Real Life Calendar.
Its funny you go on about that White Light in the Trailer ... but that was already in the Original XCX , people just love to forget.
Narrator Lin in the Original XCX game says :
In the intro cutscene she says Earth was Destroyed.
Then when you and Elma arrive in NLA for the first time and the cutscene plays , Narrator Lin says earth was swallowed in a shroud of white light.
And at the end of the game she says , "everyone else says Earth died that day" , but she dosnt believe it and one day she wants to go out there , looking for it.
And then in the after credits scene where everything you thought you knew turns out to be false ...
Not to mention Yelvs Affinity Missions that lead to the player discovering that false / implantet memories is actually a thing in XCX.
My 2 cents are :
The games have always been linked in the same timeline starting from the same Earth. Yes XCX does not fit into the Klaus Trilogy , because the White Whale left earth and because of that didnt get sucked into the same pocket dimension were XC1+2+3 take place but into a different one. But the point of origin , Earth , was still the same ... the plots of the games just dont cross each other before the plot on XC123 gets resolved and the worlds merge back together and leave the Pocket Dimension. As to when X actually meets up with the rest of them , i have no clue. Thats up for future content.
wait if this is true they setting things up for an X2 no more cliff hanger YAY
Elma looks like Alvis
I got a bunch of theories for you: What if what we thought we knew was that it was Aliens that caused Project: Exodus. What if it was the Saviorite Rebels mentioned in Xenoblade 2, what if it was a global war and Klaus put Exodus forward to keep humanity intact as he ran his experiment, like a Plan B. Maybe Mira is a third universe separate from Keves, Agnes and Aionios. What if Xenoblade 4 follows a new protagonist from the newly merged world that perhaps fused into the Mira universe follows your theory of the interlinked worlds expiring as the story, and discovers Mira exists and holds a secret that'll be revealed in a Xenoblade X2 or Xenoblade 5.
It's a one off story, still excited though
Your entire premise relies basically on lynn saying the earth was consumed by a white light, and i have to ask if this is a new line or one that existed before. If the latter, i dont know if this theory has legs. Fun watch regardless
Can Shulk, Rex and the others guys made it to Mira like in X2?
Well see 😏.
Spoilers
I find these tie-ins to be a bit sloppy. The game gives a very nice out with the fact that the Samaarians arrived in Xs universe at the "dawn of time". They created the humans left there (not hard to buy because of the core crystals which were conceived for another surgical reasons). All they need to do is have X take place FAR in the future in an alternate universe. That gives enough time for X's humans to evolve, establish their own "Earth" and then leave behind a new generation of modified human beings whom are toxic to the ganglion.
Now the game creators they literally made that🤔🤔🤔 radio broadcast 🤔🤔🤔🤔on purpose to give Us hints that they're in the same universe which means it is Canon cuz it's in the game, cuz it mentions not only vector, it mentions a ship that literally took 4,000 years to go to the edge of the Galaxy which leads Xeno Gears, and Vector is a company that still existed in the future, and as I mentioned a couple times the coalition government back in the 2000s came up with the plan to leave Earth the original one and it took them 4,000 years to establish the Galaxy Federation which eventually was partially destroyed by Ark of abel which is a giant Gnosis which can eat planets in a destroyed half of the universe.
Because Xenoblade X is Canon the radio broadcast confirmed this, the creator of the entire series original plan was to create six games that exist in the same universe , but at different time periods .Which he has already done it's just he added more games to his plan. Developers literally put a bunch of cameos, hints that they're in the same universe, and finally the radio broadcast which confirms that all the games are Canon.
cuz I know they have the redcon a couple things but keep in mind X was made after Xenoblade 1 that's why there are contradictions which they have to fix obviously that plan is not perfect, but they already made the damn game now they have to fix the continuity just to fix it cuz sometimes it does happen sometimes game companies make a game and make a new game that sort of contradicts the old game.😮😮😮😰😰😰😰
Parallel universe

"New Story Elements" Like maybe finishing the story???? One can hope.... X had one of the worst stories that felt like it was just thrown together last min and do not get me started on that ending.
There is no Wednesday, May 16th in 2054. Did you even watch Luxin's video? ;P
I do not believe for a nanosecond that the people writing the script looked at a calendar lol
@JMulls Good point XD
@@JMulls Then again, this is MONOLITHSOFT we're talking about. Are we really gonna assume they WOULDN'T go to those lengths? Still, maybe Project Exodus went on for 8 years before Earth got yeeted, or maybe Xenoblade X is connected in a different way. Personally, I theorize that Xenoblade X takes place long AFTER Xenoblade and Xenosaga, after Recurrence. Play Xenosaga to know more ^-^
@@hyliastone286 Yeah it's like even if they did look at the calendar and it's a few years before the date from X, it still kind of works just the time table changes a bit imo. They COULD be playing the long game and X is in a completely different time period I just really think they are going the route of Xeno as an IP being the tale of humanity from different parts of the universe/galaxy. Saga being those away from Earth during the Klaus split, blade being those stuck on earth, X being those who managed to get away
@@JMulls Maybe. Personally, though, I'm leaning towards Xenoblade and Xenosaga being prequels to X
Honestly, Idk about the story, I just want to play.
The Soo X is the first game of the next series of xenoblade games. -nd is a sequel to the 1-2-3 series. The connection just won’t appear to x2 or x3
so x happened when claus gone and messed up pressing buttons
