About The Game
Rebuild humanity on the mysterious planet Mira in this action RPG that’s been enhanced for the Nintendo Switch 2 system
The year is 2054. Earth has been destroyed by an intergalactic war between two alien races, and humanity is on the brink of annihilation. A small number of survivors, aboard the USS White Whale, crash land on the vast and untamed planet Mira—and now it falls to you, as a member of BLADE, to help bring humanity back from the edge of extinction...with the aid of powerful giant robots called Skells!
Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition is an open-world RPG containing not only the updated story elements and other content from the Definitive Edition, but additional optimization for the Nintendo Switch 2 system—including a smoother framerate and 4K resolution in TV mode.
Take on tough foes in a robust combat system, and pilot powerful giant robots called Skells
Choose from a huge variety of special attacks, skills, and classes in a combat system that’s as deep as you want it to be. Once you’ve proven yourself to BLADE, you’ll earn the right to pilot and personalize your very own Skell—a powerful machine that can fly, transform into a vehicle for fast overland travel, and wield immense strength in combat with customizable weapons and armor.
Gather resources and take on missions to build the community of New Los Angeles
As you go about the reconstruction effort, getting to know the people of New Los Angeles (NLA), you’ll build affinity with your party members and unlock quests for gear and other in-game rewards. Join your choice of military organization within BLADE to take on even more missions—or join squads of up to 32 players from near and far online** in Squad Tasks, Online Missions, and extra-challenging Global Nemesis Battles!
