==Stage overview== | ==Stage overview== | ||
The | The stage takes place on top of [[Azurda]] (also known as Gramps), serving as the home of [[Rex]] in ''Xenoblade Chronicles 2''. The stage continuously floats through the skies as other Titans fly by. There is a single floating platform on the left end of the stage, and Azurda's neck acts as a mild slope on the right side. Occasionally, Gramps will raise and lower his head, which will affect the angle of the slope. He will also turn his head to look at the Titans, which temporarily shrinks the size of the stage. The stage contains indications for when he is about to turn his head, such as his neck shaking, a windmill spinning faster than usual, and the door to Rex's house closing. If there are fighters standing on Azurda's head or hanging from his horn when he turns his head, they will slide inwards rather than fall off. Throughout the battle, Azurda will provide banter and comment on the state of the battle. When the battle starts, Azurda will say "I want to see a good, clean fight. Do you hear?" When a player is down to one stock, Azurda will say "It seems that we will soon have a winner!" Other examples include when a fighter is [[KO|KO'd]], [[Self-destruct|Self-destructs]] and when a Titan appears in the background. He also possesses unique lines for {{SSBU|Pyra}} and {{SSBU|Mythra}} if they are present in the match. | ||

The layout of the stage comes from the beginning of ''Xenoblade Chronicles 2'', where [[Rex]] lives on Azurda's Back as they swim across the Cloud Sea in search of salvaging jobs. The Titans spotted in the background are all areas that can be explored in the game. The background characters that appear on the stage are party members that Rex befriends throughout the story's events. | The layout of the stage comes from the beginning of ''Xenoblade Chronicles 2'', where [[Rex]] lives on Azurda's Back as they swim across the Cloud Sea in search of salvaging jobs.

Although Azurda regenerates into his adult form at the end of the game, Rex's house on his back no longer exists. Rex's fellow party members cannot be present on Azurda's Titan form at all until the very end of the game, as they do not appear at the start of a New Game+, unlike Pyra/Mythra and other Blades previously unlocked (including Shulk). | ||

*Despite the house on Azurda's back only existing at the beginning of ''Xenoblade Chronicles 2'' and the Titans forming new landmasses at the end of the game, Azurda claims that "[he misses] this old body" in Pyra and Mythra's reveal trailer, implying that the stage is intended to take place after the end of the original game (where he regenerates into his Titan form). | *Despite the house on Azurda's back only existing at the beginning of ''Xenoblade Chronicles 2'' and the Titans forming new landmasses at the end of the game, Azurda claims that "[he misses] this old body" in Pyra and Mythra's reveal trailer, implying that the stage is intended to take place after the end of the original game (where he regenerates into his Titan form). | ||
