Jul 25, 2025Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition is the best iteration of Monolith Soft’s impressive open-world masterpiece. I’m so happy that the game is on a platform many people own, so they can finally experience the wondrous world of Mira for the first time, just as I did in 2015. Xenoblade Chronicles X is the most impressive execution of the open-world concept I’ve ever experienced, and the fact that it retains that lofty designation for me even after ten years and countless open-world RPGs is a testament to Monolith Soft’s monumental achievement in RPG game design.

Mar 18, 2025If it was already a special game on Wii U, now, thanks to all the changes, new features, and—above all—the epilogue, Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition is also one of the best JRPGs on Nintendo Switch. An adventure as colossal as a giant robot and as unforgettable as an alien planet you don't want to leave.

Apr 14, 2025Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition is a phenomenal improvement on a rough but fantastic game. In terms of new content, however, it can feel very rushed and unsatisfying. Aside from that, this is still the same Xenoblade Chronicles X fanatics have come to love.

Mar 18, 2025Nintendo Switch welcomes Xenoblade Chronicles X, the missing piece of the saga. An immense open world where you can lose yourself for hundreds of hours and enjoy an intense science fiction story that hooks you from the very first moment.

Mar 18, 2025Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition will make you forget you're playing on a Switch with its breathtaking landscapes. It’s an incredible game that lets you fully immerse yourself in the sense of exploration. While the story left me slightly disappointed, the game never felt boring at any moment. For a game that offers over 100 hours of playtime, this is an outstanding feature. Whether you're a fan of the Xenoblade series or not, if you own a Nintendo Switch, I highly recommend getting lost in the vast world of Mira and finding your way back someday.

Apr 3, 2025With over 60 hours of gameplay, and much more if you aim to complete every mission and uncover every corner of Mira, there's always something to keep you engaged. Despite its narrative shortcomings, it’s a world that’s easy to lose yourself in—whether it’s your first adventure or a return trip.

Apr 1, 2025Xenoblade Chronicles X remains stuck in the game design of 10 years ago, padded with hackneyed dialogue, pinballing the player from silly quest to tired kill quotients. Sure, it occasionally surprises you with a stunning panorama or confronts you with a colossal enemy. Even then, though, it’s not long before you’re engaged in a repetitive combat loop where your attacks trigger automatically and your optimum strategy relies on approaching enemies from the rear.
