Fight for survival while exploring the vast expanses of an alien world in Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition for Nintendo Switch. This visually enhanced version of the epic sci-fi RPG features additional content – including new story elements.


This is where we build our future

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.

Welcome to Mira

Mira is a sprawling alien world filled with vast oceans, expansive grassy plains, towering mountain ranges, exotic jungles and more, each with their own secrets to discover and threats to face. During your travels, you’ll move seamlessly around the surface of the planet and explore many huge areas, watch their ecosystems come to life and encounter a range of unfamiliar, gargantuan beasts which can be battled to gain valuable resources.

Armed and ready

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 personalise your very own Skell – a powerful machine that can fly, transform into a vehicle for fast overland travel, and wield immense strength in combat.

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 rare gear and other rewards. Join your choice of military organisation within BLADE to take on even more missions – or even team up with up to 31 other players from near and far online in Squad Tasks, Online Missions, and extra-challenging Global Nemesis Battles!
