Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition Gets New Overview Trailer

Publisher Nintendo and developer Monolith Soft have released a new overview trailer for Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition titled “The Year is 2054.” The trailer shows a glimpse of the game’s narrative and showcases several locations, characters, mech piloting, combat, and more. Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition will launch on March 20 for Nintendo Switch.

The game’s details:

Originally available on the Wii U system, this definitive version of the game comes to the Nintendo Switch system with enhanced visuals, added story elements, new characters, new Skell mechs to unlock and more.

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. Now it falls to you, as a member of the New Los Angeles colony’s BLADE organization, to help bring humanity back from the edge of extinction.

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. 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 that can be battled to gain valuable resources. Once you have proven yourself to BLADE, you can even unlock your own Skell: a powerful exoskeleton that can fly, transform into a vehicle for fast overland travel and wield immense strength in combat.
