The game series Xenogears, not Xenoblade Chronicles, has no Nopon. The 1998 PlayStation role-playing game Xenogears was created by Square. Its convoluted plot encompasses enormous robots, ancient civilizations, and religion. Monolith Soft has developing Xenoblade Chronicles for Nintendo systems since 2010. It has an open universe with several planets, civilizations, and races. Despite parallels and allusions, the two series are unrelated.
