Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition Reviews
With 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.
Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition successfully brings a forgotten cult classic to the Nintendo Switch with enhanced graphics, smoother performance, and quality-of-life improvements that make it more accessible, while still offering an awe-inspiring world to explore and a deep combat system, though some outdated elements like a cluttered interface and confusing mission structure remain.

Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition is a generous reissue that proves that not all remasters are created equal. The developers have made numerous improvements that fully justify this re-launch, and the result is impressive. Admittedly, a few minor flaws remain, such as the impossibility of accepting several agreement missions at once, but this remains a minor inconvenience. In short, whether it's a first discovery or a return, like me, the investment is definitely worth it.

Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition is much more than a simple port with a simple graphical upgrade. The improvements made in this version address many of the frustrations of the original, making it more accessible without sacrificing its demanding essence. Its grandiose open world, rich combat system, and unique atmosphere make it an unforgettable experience. On the other hand, its high difficulty level, its sometimes laborious quests and its less poignant story than other games in the series, like the excellent Xenoblade Chronicles 3 , could put off some. If you are ready to invest in a titanic adventure, Xenoblade Chronicles X is an epic that deserves your full attention.
