Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition will land on the Switch this March, and ahead of this Wii U title's return, pre-order deals are now going live in North America.
If you're planning on picking up a physical copy, you might want to check out Best Buy, as it will be offering a fancy mini metal poster and stand featuring the game's key artwork. If you've already pre-ordered from this store, this should be added to your existing order.
This item is available in limited quantities, so be sure to act fast if you're interested. If we hear about a similar offer in other locations, we'll be sure to let you know.
As previously revealed, there will also be some early purchase bonuses if you end up ordering a digital or physical copy of the game. This includes an "exploration support pack" containing the survival armor series, advanced storm assault rifle, 11 augments, advanced iron knife, and 100,000 credits. Here's a look:
Apart from this, Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition will come with enhanced visuals, added story elements and more. Check out our previous coverage here on Nintendo Life for more information about this upcoming release:

I will wait for other retailers to show their pre-order bonuses. So far, this is a pretty solid one.
I just hope it doesn't screw me over like GameStop did with their SUPER limited supply of the TOTK pre-order. If you weren't first in line when they opened up, you didn't get the bonus item.
I'm surprised there isn't a collector's edition of this one.
Sweet! Ill go pre-order tomorrow
Got to about chapter 12 and didnt know how much i had left and gave up. Pretty cool game I just couldn't keep pushing through
One of the best games of its generation tbh. It’s open world made right.
Pre-ordered on the Nintendo Store. Sucks if they don't give out bonuses but 3rd party retailers do.
I’ll be disappointed if this doesn’t get a limited edition with a big fat artbook, like the other three XC games got.
I wanna see if they removed the censorship or not before ordering. Already own the game on Wii U when I was much less stern about this, so they gotta convince me I'm getting the most authentic experience to double dip
@Diablo absolutely agree, I only created my nintendolife account to let people know that the xc3 limited edition pre-orders were working
Pretty cool bonus, happy for those in the US going for it!
I have a feeling this isn't getting a limited edition after the debacle for the XC3 limited edition that came without the game a while after release.
Oh I pre-ordered this game straight from the Nintendo website the day it was announced lol
Europe has different bonuses (https://store.nintendo.at/de/xenoblade-chronicles-x-definitive-edition), including a keychain, holographic cards, and a deskmat
Just gotta wait and see what bonuses are available here in the UK.
Nintendo has a weird habit here of either not giving us any bonuses, not allowing pre-orders and then selling out of the bonus items within seconds of launch or releasing the pre-order bonuses as separate purchases weeks/months after the game launches. (the latter is what happend with xenoblade 3)
@Aurumonado Yeah, it does kind of suck. Then again, I have the Collectors Edition of the Wii U version, so I'm kind of good there. Would have been nice if they included the entire soundtrack in the USB drive that came with it, but it probably wouldn't have mattered anyway; that USB drive is so badly DRM'ed that it's practically unusable.
@Setery Do you mean the wooden plaque? I got one :3
@rvcolem1 You were at the end. The only thing after chapter 12 is the epilogue.
@SillyPlanet92 Yes. It's not the biggest deal in the world, but that really prevents me from ever wanting to pre-order with them again.
@Alesund oh really I had barely seen the snow area and far north fire area. I guess some of the larger enemies are optional. I would see things way higher than my level and think I had a ton left
They bringing this game back hard. I may have to go ahead and lea frog it past a lot of games in my backlog to get it on day one just so I can play with the most people online. This game arriving is like a homecoming party. I feel like we'll finally have the full community it was supposed to have the first go around now. Newbies, I'm here for you!
lol, no thanks. I've tried to order from BestBuy maybe a half-dozen times to get one of their pre-order bonuses... and gotten exactly zero.
At least it's nothing I'll be sad to miss out on, like a steelbook case.
@rvcolem1 lol that's the last chapter
But also I did the same.
@Aurumonado
same was kinda bummed out, but eh whatever pre-ordered from bestbuy.
