The year is 2054, and Earth is no more. In the aftermath of a devastating intergalactic war between two alien factions, humanity’s remnants find refuge aboard the USS White Whale. When the vessel crash-lands on the mysterious planet Mira, survivors establish the colony of New Los Angeles. As a recruit of the BLADE organization, it’s up to you to explore this uncharted world, fight for survival, and help rebuild civilization from the ashes.

A brand-new trailer for Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition has just landed, giving fans a deeper look at what’s in store when the sci-fi RPG makes its long-awaited return on March 20, 2025. Originally launched on the Wii U, this enhanced edition brings the adventure to the Nintendo Switch with upgraded visuals, expanded storylines, new characters, and even an additional Skell mech to pilot.

Mira is a sprawling alien landscape teeming with lush grasslands, towering mountains, dense jungles, and vast oceans—each with their own secrets and dangers. Players will traverse these breathtaking environments seamlessly, witnessing vibrant ecosystems filled with massive, awe-inspiring creatures. Every battle presents a chance to gather valuable resources and uncover new mysteries hidden across the planet.

As players prove their worth to BLADE, they’ll unlock access to the powerful Skells—massive exoskeletal mechs capable of flight, high-speed travel, and devastating combat maneuvers. Whether exploring Mira’s untamed frontiers or engaging in intense battles, these mechanized titans offer unparalleled mobility and firepower. With Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition set to launch in just a few months, fans can prepare to dive back into one of the most ambitious sci-fi RPGs of the last decade—this time, with more to discover than ever before.
