In Xenoblade Chronicles 3, players will eventually reach Swordmarch and the City. While exploring it, Noah, Mio, and their allies will eventually happen upon the Memorial Hall. This spot features six statues that honor the Xenoblade Chronicles 3 founders, who we get better acquainted with in the Future Redeemed DLC. However, in the main game the Founders were only referred to by their houses and not their first names. It’s only after going through this additional expansion that we learn who these people are.

Okay. So in a way, the original Xenoblade Chronicles 3 doesn’t give away who all of the City Founders are, because two of the houses shared statues of their mentors instead of themselves and one only used a cage to represent themselves. However, almost all playable characters and some notable NPCs make up the roster of people who built the version of the City Noah, Mio, Eunie, Lanz, Taion, and Sena visit. The ones whose statues do resemble their character models in Future Redeemed are especially easy to pick out at a glance.
Here’s the full list of who’s who:
- Glimmer: Founder Rhodes
- Linka, who used a statue of Rex instead of herself: Founder Cassini
- Matthew: Founder Vandham
- Na’el: Founder Doyle
- Nikol: Founder Ortiz
- Panacea, who used a statue of Shulk instead of herself: Founder Reid
- Riku: The Seventh Founder
Xenoblade Chronicles 3 and Future Redeemed are available for the Nintendo Switch.
