With Xenoblade Chronicles 3D release date fast approaching, it's hard not to yearn for the brand new title from the series, Xenoblade Chronicles X.
However far away the (still undecided) western release date might be, new information for the game has been arriving in spades leaving fans wanting more. Recently we have received news on the battle system, fresh screenshots and gameplay videos - and now it's time for an musical update.
Xenoblade Chronicles had an immense soundtrack, but the sequel could potentially top it. It's being delivered on an epic 4 CDs – that's 55 tracks in total. The Xenoblade Chronicles X soundtrack will be released in Japan on May 20th, for 4,298 Yen.
We hope this amazing collection of CDs comes to the west soon, but until then, why don't we reminisce in the comment section below? We're off to listen to Snowy Valak Mountain Night, but what is your favourite track from the original Xenoblade Chronicles soundtrack?

Strange, I read a few days ago it was 5 CDs.
PS: Yes, Snowy Valak Mountain Night is my favourite too.
@Shiryu Glad you agree!It was originally announced as five but is now four
@Hey_Listen Ah, there you go. ^_^
And if you don't close the case properly it will explode! Thats the level of epicness right here
Didn't Xenoblade have over 80 different tracks, not counting event-exclusive recuts? Not impressed by the number, but I trust Takahashi to deliver some epic tunes here!
Is Xenoblade 3d out today? Seems no shops in Ireland are stocking it. What's up with that?
Ah, it's really tough to choose a favorite, but I actually really enjoy Satorl Marsh Night! I can run around there for hours listening to the track and looking at how beautiful the marsh is at night.
Since Nintendo saw fit to never allow us to buy the soundtrack over here, I had to download a pirated version. This is what happens when you don't give people the products they want.
I hope they release this soundtrack over here, but this is NOA we're talking about, so I doubt it'll happen. Nintendo Co Ltd loves to hand out extra stuff in Japan, Nintendo of Europe loves to put out special editions, and Nintendo of America doesn't even like localizing games, let alone any of this ridiculous talk of "extras," "bonuses," or "collector's editions."
The Final Fantasy VI soundtrack was 3 CDs and over 70 tracks, for reference. I do have that.
Mechonis Core theme is my favorite. Then Guar Plains.
Here's a link to preorder it at Amazon.JP

...When you said epic, I was expecting Smash size, lol.
Bah, this article made me want to replay Xenoblade and made me antsy for a release date for XBX...I hate you.
...But I guess that makes this a good article
"but the sequel could potentially top it."
First Xenoblade's OST was also 4 discs and had way more tracks than this.
@Quorthon I'm on the same boat.
I mean, they could at least put them on iTunes or something if they dont want to make physical editions, like they did with Pokemon, but for some reason they ignore titles like this :<
I'm buying this soundtrack before the game is even out in Europe, I know it will be that good.
As for the original XC, my favourite is Satorl, the Shimmering Marsh/Night.
@R_Champ This made me laugh out loud!
Colony 9 night, makes ya wanna learn some instruments:)
My favorites are Black Tar and the song from the story trailer. Black Tar reminds me of a Linkin Park song. Very rap metalish. The story trailer song I feel, sets the mood of the game perfectly.
