Hello, and welcome to our ongoing guide to every Unique Monster location in Xenoblade Chronicles 3. There's a ton of these massive beasts to find and fight in Monolith Soft's latest adventure — somewhere in the region of around 140 — and plenty of them are super-tough to locate, hidden away in secret areas and hard to reach spots.

In order to help you lovely folks out in your hunting endeavours, we've put together Unique Monster Location guides for every area in the game. In this particular guide, we're moving on to the endgame region of Origin and the Origin Interior. Let's get stuck in!
