Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition Brings An Expansive Sci-fi Adventure To Nintendo Switch On 20th March 2025

Wednesday, 30. October 2024
Fight for survival on a mysterious alien world and explore the planet with your own giant mech in Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition for Nintendo Switch. Originally available on the Wii U system in 2015, the action RPG comes to Nintendo Switch with enhanced visuals, added story elements and more when it launches on 20th March 2025.

The year is 2054. Humans have fled Earth amidst a destructive intergalactic war. As one of the survivors and a member of the New Los Angeles (NLA) colony, the mission is to help build a new home on the sprawling, hostile planet Mira. This seamless open world across five otherworldly continents is teeming with unknown creatures – some of which are epic in scale – and players will fight for the future of humanity.

Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition features the player character at the centre of the action in a standalone sci-fi story. Avatars can be customised in looks and class and the comprehensive battle system offers a wide variety of options. Once players have proven themselves to the BLADE organisation, they can also unlock a powerful Skell: A giant, customisable mech that’s proficient in exploration and combat to assist in adventures across Mira.

During reconstruction, players will get to know the people of NLA, help them with their problems and build affinity with party members to unlock quests that contain rare gear and other rewards to earn. Plus, join an online squad* and take on multiplayer-specific missions, including extra-challenging Global Nemesis Battles. It is also possible to recruit the avatars of other players to the team in the main story.

There is even more to discover in this definitive version of the game. Just who is the mysterious hooded figure on the beach?
