Gallery: Get Hot Under the Collar in the Continent Of Black Steel in Xenoblade Chronicles X

Heck yeah, baby!!! I can't wait for it to release globally!!!

Looks like they've worked pretty hard to make sure a style of area which has a tendency to be boring, isn't. Which is good!

The giant monster in the 6th picture looks like a nice guy. He's smiling and winking.

Anyway, I really need a release date. The waiting is so painful

I will be avoiding this site and GameXplain to avoid spoilers on this game...especially GameXplain. They are so notorious for spoiling a game in in their titles and thumbnails. If they get a Japanese copy of the game, they will pretty much upload the entire game on their channel.

What ever is going on in the 7th pic, the lava walking one?

@abbyhitter It's tricky, I'm anxious to know more about how the game plays and what weapons and abilities there are etc, but I'd rather not spoil the story too much. Damn I hope we get this sometime this summer.

@MajinSoul He's waving too! I think he just wants a hug.

@MajinSoul You should watch the anime "Attack on Titan". Makes you think twice about smiling giants...

@abbyhitter beware, they'll be livestreaming the japanese version as soon as it comes out.

@TheRealThanos Also the music of both AoT and XCX are done by the same guy, Hiroyuki Sawano. So that would also be a good way for @MajinSoul to get prepared for the awesome soundtrack that'll be in this game.

Anyway, on topic: this area looks kind of like it took a bit of inspiration from Mordor and threw a hint of Metroid into the mix.

@Moshugan You could walk on Lava in the original Xenoblade. It just damaged you over time. Im assuming the main character has gemmed in some Environmental damage immunity so he can fight that giant enemy crab.

We can walk on lava? Lord Karnage must be informed....

@TheRealThanos @triforcepower73 I've already watched AoT, the first season that is. I was siding with the Titans so I didn't mind the smiles
Now that you mentioned it, I really hope the soundtrack of XCX will be purchasable in the west. I already listend to a few tracks on youtube and it sounds amazing.

@abbyhitter Derrick of GameXplain has already confirmed to stream the game on Twitch on April 28th (US time). I'm pretty sure that he'll upload a good chunk of it on Youtube. I'm with you on this, gotta stay away from GameXplain for a quite a while (unfortunately)

Looks way too epic.

@MajinSoul It(the soundtrack) releases on May 20 in Japan. I already preordered it on CDJapan.com. I don't think that they'll have an official release for it in the west.

@MajinSoul Siding with the Titans... ? Whààààààt.... ??

@DEAD There never was a graphical downgrade. The scene in question was originally shown in CGI, and was then remade using in-game assets. In fact, the game's graphics have actually improved since E3.

Ahhhh jeez, My Wii U and Xenoblade Cross will show up in a week or so, but here I am still struggling to finish Xenoblade Chronicles. Well... only "struggling" in the sense that I want to get 100% in everything before finishing it. I should probably just finish the game.

@kurtasbestos you bought JPN one? because its gonna take forever for it to come to oversees country's despite the fact that its still coming out here this year.
