I heard so many good things about this game long before this was revealed, and it wasn’t a disappointment in any way, had so much fun with the gameplay and story.

The same, but better (but still boring)

It's the Xenoblade again, hooray! Prettier, faster, slicker, and full of the graphical niceness you'd expect from a multi-generational jump in technical quality. A very good game just got even better.
Unfortunately it's still boring. There are still dozens, maybe even hundreds, of side quests to deal with, many of which you almost have to do, otherwise you won't get some of the best items in the game. This bogs down and otherwise outstanding storyline, turning what should be a 40-hour thunderclap into a 100-hour molasses thick slog. No, you don't technically have to do any side quests, but that's like telling you that you can have pizza without toppings. Doable, but an outrage to most of us.
All in all it's a wonderful game if you can put aside all of the incredibly slow, mind-numbing additives that didn't really need to be added. A potential gem, with dozens upon dozens of flaws in the jewel.

The game is really fun. Definitely watch some gameplay videos to decide if the combat system is for you. There is plenty of content to keep you playing for hours.

A absolute must buy. If you never played Xenoblade Chronicles then now is the time. Amazing story, characters, and soundtrack. Far more superior than Xenoblade 2.

I never played this on the Wii U as I never had that system, I did play it on the 3DS and it looked ok on that system. Now I have it on the Switch and it looks amazing! There is a lot to do in this game. I haven't tried using the Shulk Amiibo on it yet, but I will eventually. The inclusion of the additional story is a nice touch. It also includes many quality of life improvements to make the game a little easier to play. If you liked Xenoblade Chronicles 2 you'll like this game. If you haven't played either of the Xenoblade Chronicles definitely check this game out.

A remastered version of an already great game. Visuals were improved and the great RPG classic combat still remains. Get this for your Switch collection

Top notch jrpg for the Switch this version is the best out of the other one's that were released for Wii and 3DS its picture quality and sound is overall better it also has extra content exclusive to the Switch. The soundtrack is amazing and the gameplay is fun but it does have a learning curve and there can be some tough enemies. The story has so many thematic topics it could be a book in a way it touches on religion, war, morality, and cultural barriers just the story alone makes this game a masterpiece and a must-have.

I will preface this with the fact I’m still not done with the game. But, I have to say it is very good. I’m many hours in with the end still not in sight. Not unusual for RPGs of course. Played this a bit on 3ds a few years ago but never finished and this upgrade gave me the perfect reason to finish. It looks miles better than that version and has other improvements as well. If you’re debating then this is the one you need for sure. And I can truly say this may end up being one if the best RPGs I’ve ever picked up period.

This switch exclusive places you on an immersive world, with a gripping story, and engaging combat system. There’s plenty to explore and so much to take in. An insane amount of optional side quests this game truly is the definitive version of the Wii original. You will get ur moneys worth.
