Xenoblade Chronicles 3 will be arriving on the Nintendo Switch this July, and in the lead-up to the big release, its official Japanese social account has been sharing new clips of gameplay and cinematics.

The latest one was uploaded yesterday, and although it’s only a brief look at a cinematic, it’s still exciting to see some new footage of this anticipated release. Here it is via Twitter:

If you’re wondering what exactly it’s about, here’s a translation by @AegisFloral via the unofficial Xenoblade Twitter account @XenobladeEN. It shows off what appears to be a younger Ethel, who is now an enemy, saving Noah from Keves.

“Ethel had once saved Noah from Keves when he was just a child soldier of Agnus. Noah and the others looked up to Ethel from then onwards. So why on Aionios is she attacking them as enemies now…?”

Here’s a look at Ethel’s current form:

Keves’s “Colony 4″ military commander. Dual wield with a slender sword.”

As noted in a follow-up tweet, featuring some previously shown footage, it’s mentioned once again how you’ll be able to swap between characters while in the field (translation once again provided by @AegisFloral):

“You can change between Noah or the others at any time while you’re on the move. Switch to your favorite party member and move around the field!”
