After years of asking both Nintendo and developer Monolith Soft, Xenoblade Chronicles X will finally arrive on the Nintendo Switch next year. This will make the complete collection of Xenoblade Chronicles available on the Nintendo Switch platform.
Nintendo made this announcement on X this Tuesday complete with a trailer showcasing the improved version of the title. In an official statement from Nintendo, it was said:
Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition features your character at the center of the action in a standalone sci-fi story. Customize your avatar’s looks and class to your liking and choose from a wide variety of options in a comprehensive battle system that’s as deep as you want it to be. Once you have proven yourself to the BLADE organization, you can also unlock a powerful Skell: Your giant, customizable mech that’s proficient in exploration and combat to assist you in your adventures across Mira.
While you go about the reconstruction effort, you’ll get to know the people of NLA, help them with their problems, and build affinity with your 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! You can even recruit the avatars of other players to your team in the main story.
Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition will boast updates to visuals, as well as additional story content to set it apart from the original release on the Wii U back in 2015. As one of the people who has been asking for this for a long time, the shock is still sinking in.
For players excited to once again gear up and join the rebuilding effort, Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition will be available on March 20th, 2025 For the Nintendo Switch platform.
