Note: This expansion pass is for people who already own Xenoblade 2 and want to purchase the Torna DLC campaign, along with other assorted bits of content like the Shulk and Fiora encounters. Nintendo marketed this DLC really strangely, but that's what you'll get if you buy this.
I mainly purchased this for Torna, and the 30-hour prequel campaign was really good. I liked it better than the base game, primarily because it respects the player's time a LOT more, and the story and characters were significantly more enjoyable.
Torna streamlines and simplifies a lot of the bloated features that, in my opinion, weighed Xenoblade 2 down. The inventory is simpler, you don't have to manage every shop in the world yourself, and there are only 3 playable characters with no "rolling" for random Blades. This cuts down on the clutter and busywork that took up about 30% of Xenoblade 2's playtime. It just feels so much better to battle and explore without getting bogged down in those horrible menus.
The story is still not amazing, but it wasn't actively bad in the ways I felt Xenoblade 2 could sometimes be. A lot of the uncomfortable anime tropes are played down in favor of the characters speaking and acting like normal people. The distinct lack of catgirls and maids was a major improvement. Also the jazz-inspired music is phenomenal.
Overall I think Torna was a great update to Xenoblade 2 and it's the portion of the game I'll be playing if I ever decide to revisit it.

I originally played xenoblade 2 when it released a couple years ago. After playing xenoblade 3 (i did not enjoy it), i decided to go back to 2 and get the dlc. Theres a ton of added missions, some added blades and the added story mode of torna. Im still workjng through the main campaign, but it feels much more difficult than i remember. I remember referring to the game as 'comfy' when it first came out, now im having to really focus on my blades and combos to beat the bosses and unique monsters. No complaints, just feels different than my first playthrough. I do feel the dlc has made the game feel fresh, allowing me to play with a new roster and abilities. Gave it a 4 out of 5 primarily because the price hasnt changed even though its 18 months old and the 3rd game is out. Definitely worth a pickup if you are going for a second playthrough.

This is DLC done right. It comes with its own game to expand on the story to some of the other characters in the game. It also adds comes with a lot of extra goodies. for the main game, and if you get it before you start the game it really helps you get started with some extra money and items

Is a must when you own the full game, adds new features and blades, as well as a stand alone game that gives background to the game

I love Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and when I heard there was going to be a dlc prequel I was super excited! Had to buy the dlc. Very good storyline for torna the golden country. The dlc bonus goodies are great too. The new blades pretty much make post game superbosses a cinch and the new challenge mode gives great rewards. Looking to sink a good thirty new hours into you xc2 game? Buy it! You won’t regret it.

I absolutely loved Xenoblade 2 and wanted to experience more of it, which led me to this purchase. This DLC gives you several more hours to enjoy. There are elements of the gameplay from the original game that are more simplified and streamlined, however this DLC places more importance on story and the lore from Xenoblade 2.

Learn the story of Jin's frozen corpse girlfriend from the base game! She is the best though. He's just weird. Mythra is there and she is looking fine as ever too.

I wanted to have additional features for my Xenoblade Chronicles 2 game and purchased the expansion pack. I had previously done this for my Zelda game and I enjoyed the added features provided this expansion pack.

The expansion pass dlc is absolutely worth it as on top of the expansion it comes with multiple things for the base game. It’s interesting How the expansion is separate from the base game

It was convenient. I’m glad I was able to pay for it through PayPal pay in 4, and was able to not pay in full. Wish all stores support pay in 4
