The stage takes place on two of the high ledges overlooking the Bionis' Leg, and consists of two main upper platforms with several smaller platforms floating underneath, over a body of water underneath the bottom boundary of the stage. Mechonis can be seen in the background. More platforms are included on the Wii U version, including two solid platforms that feature springs, which can take the player to the top of the stage. As time passes, the stage will change from day to night and back to day, like in the game of origin.
On the Wii U version of the stage, Metal Face, a Faced Mechon and recurring major antagonist in Xenoblade Chronicles, may appear as a stage boss during the nighttime. He attacks players by swiping his claws and firing lasers that can destroy the platforms, causing the top platform to lower, though it is restored during the daytime. When leaving, he may also attack by flying across the stage. It is possible to defeat him by attacking him enough, which destroys him and damages any opponents nearby as he explodes. If Shulk is among the fighters, Metal Face utters special quotes directed towards him.
The Final Destination version of the stage is set on a flat, elevated platform.

Metal Face
WiiXenoblade Chronicles (04/2012)
A faced Mechon who appears on the Gaur Plain stage. He swoops in from the sky when night falls and then leaves with the break of dawn. He doesn't actively pursue fighters, but if you get too close, you'll taste the deadly bite of his claws. Watch out for his laser attack too-it can destroy parts of the stage itself!
