Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition Arriving on Switch in 2025

Nintendo and Monolith Soft have announced Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition for the Nintendo Switch, set to launch on March 20, 2025, for $59.99. This remastered edition of the 2015 Wii U classic includes enhanced visuals, expanded story elements, and additional content, bringing the beloved game to a new generation of players.

Here’s an overview of the game, via Nintendo:

Originally available on the Wii U system in 2015, the action RPG Xenoblade Chronicles X comes to Nintendo Switch with enhanced visuals, added story elements, and more.

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

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.

There is even more to discover in this definitive version of the game. Just who is the mysterious hooded figure on the beach? You’ll have to stay tuned to learn more…
