Who Is Noah In Xenoblade Chronicles 3?

Noah
Noah In Xenoblade Chronicles 3

Noah is a pretty optimistic character like all the other protagonists of such games. We came to this conclusion by observing the trailer where he mentions that we’ll build it for ourselves, a world with the freedom to choose.” From this quote, we can ensure that he might be a true optimist like the other main characters.

Also, it seems that in Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Noah has a special relationship with the other protagonist Mio. They both are awfully similar as they both are off-seers and can also combine together to make one powerful being called Ouroboros. However, we still have to wait for the full story to pan out for us to jump to any conclusions.

We also will have to wait to see how Noah, Mio, and the rest progress toward their quest to build a world with full freedom. We are pretty sure that the gang will always be there to save the world when needed.

Furthermore, Noah can increase his power by fusing with Mio to become an Ouroboros. Once they fuse together, and Xenoblade Chronicles 3, Noah is the leader, then they can use the following arts:

  • Dragon Tail: An AOE attack from the air.
  • Unison Strike:  An ability that grants a higher critical damage rate.
  • Mega Spinning Edge: An AOE piercing attack that does high damage.
