Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is in development, according to a newly discovered leak from a voice actress that has worked on the previous games in the series.

The news that Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is in development comes from Jenna Coleman, who did the voice of Melia in the first Xenoblade Chronicles. Coleman was talking up how she got the job for the role, and how she got into the role for the first game.

“God, when was the first game? Like ten years ago? It was a long time ago—anyway I did it pre Doctor Who days, and when they did the second one, they asked me to come back. And I think they’re going to do another,” she said in a video talk with YouTuber Din’s Meteorite.

She paused after this and then added, “Common knowledge? Don’t know. Yeah, I think they’re going to do another. Not sure if I’m allowed to say that.”

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 hasn’t been announced yet, but the above video was recently discovered by the Xenoblade Chronicles community – alongside rumors that a third game, a direct sequel, is coming.
