In Xenoblade Chronicles 3, every one of the six main party members fills a certain role. Nintendo’s earlier announcements went over that. Now, people can better visualize what that means. That’s because Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Attacker, Defender, and Healer videos are available. Each one shows how one specific character would behave in a fight.
The first Xenoblade Chronicles 3 video focuses on Noah acting as an Attacker. He’s constantly focused on dealing damage to the opponent in the teaser. It also shows the backstabbing sorts of attacks someone could do when a foe is distracted by allies.
#XenobladeChronicles3 Attackers are skilled at going on the offensive, and can target enemies from the side or from behind to deal massive damage.
Though they lead the attack for their party, their damage output also makes them tempting targets for enemies. pic.twitter.com/SAsn86AC1q

Next is a Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Defender video starring Lanz. After he attacks the enemy and deals damage, it shows how the foe will stop targeting someone like Noah and go after him instead.
#XenobladeChronicles3 Defenders excel at blocking and dodging. In battle, they draw the enemy's attention, making sure the deadliest blows never reach their allies.

Finally, there’s a Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Healer video that actually doesn’t show Eunie healing. Instead, it focuses on something else the supporter can do. While she’s attacking an opponent with other allies, it appears she uses her Myopic Screen attack, which then leaves a toppled enemy dazed.
Healers in #XenobladeChronicles3 can restore the HP of their allies, strengthen their attack or defence, and even get party members who fall in battle back on their feet. pic.twitter.com/eH5au9HtSs
