I'm grateful Nintendo announced the game but we need more information: how does the combat work, is the original OST returning plus additional info on the online modes.

I'm hoping this is a faithful remaster of the original Wii U title and I hope no content is removed/altered.

@johnedwin yes it will https://www.famitsu.com/article/202410/22673

@themightyant, this is my favourite Nintendo game of all time, I hope it sells very well, i might be picking up multiple copies for the online mode as the online arenas were very fun, I spent 400 hours on this game and plan to spend many more 100s of hours on this, Nintendo has finally answered my prayers.😀
I have been waiting for this multiple years.👍

When Nintendo notified me about this, my dreams have come true now, we can finally know the real ending for this game, in addition, excellent online game play too.

Yes my prayers are answered.
After 5 long years.

@AStupidID I thought the same thing: in addition, a new smash game is definitely needed, been a few years since I last played ultimate,

Xenoblade 2 used the engine for Xenoblade X so this is no suprise.

@Johnnel, Nintendo takes care of their franchises so having the entire series available globally would be amazing, it is annoying being a fan of a relatively obscure franchise like Xeno because some of the games are locked on old consoles; I wish Nintendo could make the switch/switch 2 a legacy console so every Xeno game in addition every Nintendo first party game should be available worldwide.

@Johnnel, I think Nintendo and Monolith soft should purchase Xenogears licence from square and hire a external studio, to remaster/port the game to Nintendo hardware.

I love anything Xeno related and having all the series on Nintendo hardware would be a win.

That moment Elma appeared when Noah and Mio were playing the flute sent chills down my spine; please Nintendo and Monolith Soft port Xenoblade X to the Nintendo switch I have been waiting so long.

The fact that KOS-MOS and Elma appeared but not the protagonist from Xeno-Gears, means that both Xenoblade X and Xenosaga are equally canon, implying, they are both connected to the main trilogy.

@Zeebor15, I agree, so they should just have the entire trails saga, labeled in Roman numerals otherwise it is quite confusing for new players.

Trails in the sky was originally known in Japanese as,
英雄伝説VI 空の軌跡 which translates to Legend of heroes vi: trails in the sky.
Falcom should have kept this naming format, for future entries in the series.

@Zeebor15, yes you are correct, although the current game world building is just focused on Trails.

Think of it like the Xeno series, there are Xenogears, Saga and Blade although each 'sub series' is unique and different.

@Coversnail, I love this series, already own all games available on Switch and I want Xseed to publish the forgotten Cold Steel games to Nintendo.

I presume Nis America, is doing the publishing rights for the remake, as they have mentioned recently about making western releases simultaneously to Japan

@Zeebor15,
Dragon slayer was invented in 1984 but eventually evolved to 'the legend of heroes' in 1989; there are 3 different worlds within this franchise: Dragon slayer, Gagharv and Trails/Kiseki.
See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Legend_of_Heroes

Best announcement of 2024 for me, I wonder if this game is actually a Switch 2 game, as it poised to launch in 2025.

As Switch titles go, the best games so far are Trails Azure and Daybreak; with Azure being the best port.

Xenoblade X please Nintendo.

@Ramouz I wholeheartedly agree with you, I feel like I have wasted over £100 of hard earned cash buying flop ports and weak first party clones most notably Splatoon 3.

Huh but if you think about how old the switch actually is it's 2017 tech, how much people use tech from a decade ago on a daily basis?

It's depressing sometimes how drastically underpowered the switch actually is, I feel some games such as Xenoblade 3 would have been even better on more powerful hardware, I have literally played my switch to death ever since launch and it's starting to wear down and I'm not interested in Sony and Microsoft, I really want Nintendo release the new system next year.

This will be a very sad day for Xenoblade X, some of the skells and weapons can only be unlocked via online play also some costumes too.

Also the song Melancholia can only be heard online too.
Just hope the game gets ported to Nintendo's next gen console .

Nintendo really need to make a next gen console ASAP, the current technology of the current switch models date back to 2015 tech.
I got my switch controllers in 2019 and they are starting to wear down.

Also you can buy a steam deck for £345 pounds in the UK same price as Switch Oled but can play AAA+ Titles from PS5 and Xbox series consoles.

If Nintendo don't release a new console in the next two years Nintendo as a company will become obsolete.

This direct was a really bad one, there were pretty much no new triple A first party games announced, if you think about it, the switch has always had at least one big triple A Nintendo game every year since launch, this proves that the lifespan of the switch is doomed, all ninty fans can do now is save up for the next gen Nintendo hardware which will apparently cost £350.

Hopefully Splatoon 3 will get keep all the fans going until new hardware arrives.

Xenoblade X, 'In the forest', Sylvalum and Melonica are my favourite tunes .

All I want from Nintendo is Xenoblade X2, a new fire emblem and Splatoon 4 plus a new 3d mario game

You can listen to all Hiroyuki's, music on YouTube and MPI and Mika Kobayashi, his two most used musicians are very skilled, just imagine the endless possibilities of an entire soundtrack for Xenoblade X sequel that consists of vocals from his pool of talented singers, plus a more fleshed out story and beautiful graphics on the new hardware I'm pretty sure Nintendo could end up with a metacritic score of more than 97.

@michellelynn0976: Nintendo has to make a sequel for Xenoblade X on the next gen hardware, I played 440 hours+ on Xenoblade X during 2020-2021 and the game is by far the best Nintendo game I have ever played before and is way better than any other JRPG.

Also hire Hiroyuki Sawano again his music style has evolved a lot since 2015 and he is a really highly rated anime composer, now for some very famous anime.

I forgot to add, A Xenoblade X sequel would be awesome too

A new Fire emblem game

I remember a youtuber mentioned he saw a job application for this.
