10 years later, Xenoblade Chronicles X Definitive Edition still has one of gaming’s best open worlds, but is it truly definitive?

It’s not long until Xenoblade Chronicles X Definitive Edition lands on Nintendo Switch, meaning the entire Xenoblade Chronicles saga will be playable on Nintendo’s hybrid wonder console - and that’s a beautiful thing.

Much like Xenoblade Chronicles Definitive Edition from 2020, Xenoblade Chronicles X Definitive Edition keeps things relatively faithful to the original release, but with some notable improvements including more detailed character models, a cleaner user interface, and generally upscaled assets. About 20 hours in so far, I’m in awe at just how well this decade-old Wii U game holds up. Though I suppose I shouldn't be that surprised given developer Monolith Soft's prowess for technical wizardry.
