NCL has announced plans for special cover plates, which will be released alongside Xenoblade Chronicles 3D in Japan.

The New Nintendo 3DS covers have a glossy look and bright red color to boot. The set features the well known Monado blade, which plays a key roll in Xenoblade Chronicles. To underline this weapon's strength, the covers also have a single line of text, which reads: "Power of Monado."

These new covers will be released alongside Xenoblade Chronicles 3D in Japan on April 2. Europe is getting the game a day later, and North Americans will have to wait an additional week. Sadly, there are currently no plans to release the covers outside of Japan.
