Q: Can you customize your Skell with different weapons and armor?
A: Yes, once you prove yourself to BLADE you will be able to personalize your Skell with customizable weapons and armor.
Q: How does the combat system work in this game?
A: The combat system in Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition lets you take on tough foes using special attacks, skills, and classes, allowing for a deep and customizable experience.
Q: What are the Skells and how do they enhance gameplay?
A: Skells are powerful giant robots that enhance gameplay by allowing players to fly, quickly travel across land in vehicle form, and wield immense strength in combat using customizable weapons and armor.
Q: Do you need an online membership to play the game online?
A: Yes, a Nintendo Switch Online membership is required to team up with other players online.
Q: What kind of missions can you take on in the game?
A: You can join a military organization within BLADE to take on more missions, or team up with other players online in Squad Tasks, Online Missions, and Global Nemesis Battles.
Q: Does this come with the pre-order bonus Exploration Support Package?
A: It seems like you wouldn't get the Exploration Support Package with a Best Buy order, but having played the WiiU release, you're not going to use the gear long enough to care, and the starter bonus will eventually become insignificant once you get 2 to 3 chapters further into game progress. Personally, I would rather have the mini poster and stand than the digital items because it would stand as a nicer memento than the digital gear, which I might accidentally sell in the course of the gameplay.
Q: Does this come with steel case/ preorder bonus
A: No steel case. There is a Mini Metal Poster that was offered as a pre-order bonus for online pre-orders starting 01/23/2025 "while supplies last". I pre-ordered back in January and it was added to my order a few days later. I couldn't tell you whether it's still available or if they've run out.

Join Mario on an epic paper-adventure to collect the Crystal Stars before the X-Nauts do! The nefarious X-Nauts are after the treasure behind the Thousand-Year Door! With a map from Princess Peach, and the help of a few locals, Mario journeys through a colorful world made of paper to find them first. To prevail in this quest, you’ll have to level up Mario and his friends, master timing-based attacks and badges to impress the audience on the stage of combat, and make use of all the abilities that come with being cursed—er, conveniently made of paper—like folding into a plane to cross big gaps or turning sideways to slip through narrow openings. Leaf through a storybook world with charming characters in every fold. Surprises abound in this deep and engaging tale, where everyone’s got something to say and it’s often not what you’d expect. Mario will meet all kinds of interesting folks on his journey, like the upbeat and studious Goombella and the shy but determined Koops. Some of these characters will need your help with their own quests, or even join your party. Others, like Peach and Bowser, have stories of their own that you’ll play between Mario’s chapters! A classic turns the page, bringing fresh visuals and updated features. Twenty years after the original game on the Nintendo GameCube system, this version for the Nintendo Switch system has revamped graphics, and a suite of additional changes that make the game easier than ever to enjoy.
