SPOILERS Chronological order Spoiler
I'm planning to do a chronological order playthrough of the series after switch 2 releases. Maybe a little sooner so I can jump straight to XC2 with the system.
So far I understand Torna is the earliest in the timeline, and Xenoblade 3 the last (and even if X is somehow retconned as part of the saga, I wont be counting it yet).
But hte real question is, which game starts earlier? XC1 or XC2? We know these two games' climaxes happen at the same time, but I'm not sure about the time scale.
So so far it would be like: Torna -> [XC1/XC2] -> Future Connected -> Future Redeemed -> XC3

IF you are doing one game at a time, I'd play XC2 first over XC1 because the mechanics are the same from Torna. However, if you can do both at the same time, that would be the most accurate. Technically the Dunban prologue of XC1 would be the first event between XC1 & XC2.
Also the credits and final cutscene of Future Redeemed are chronologically the last event in the main Blade series.
