    This is the best way to play Xenoblade Chronicles. The original on the Wii didn't do the best job when it came to managing the hundreds of side quests you had to do and this remake solves that, along with many other quality of life improvements. If you are looking for one of the best rpg's to play on your Switch, then Xenoblade Chronicles Definitive Edition is a must buy!

    Looks like it could be really good, but I kind of lost interest after the opening fighting. I'll still give it a chance and play through it. Looks beautiful and the music is nice, the characters faces are punchable and forgettable though.

    A JRPG Classic

    Xenoblade Chronicles is one of the best JRPG's of the last decade, and the definitive edition really improves the originals weakest point, its graphics. I tried playing the original Wii version on my Wii U and just could never get past the ugly character models. With the remastered edition I had no such issue and I'm so glad I finally got to play through the game and enjoy it to its fullest. If you are a fan of huge open worlds or JRPG's, I highly recommend this game

    Excellent JRPG, I suggest playing this one first before you get into all of the other Xenoblade titles.

    I never played this when it was on the Wii so I decided to pick it up for the Switch. While some of the monster models have less details vs. a more recent game such as Xenoblade 2 the graphics are still quite good. The scale of the game is massive and the gameplay despite being 10 yrs old fits right in with the games today. Finally got around to playing it and 30 hrs in it has me hooked. I would recommend this to anyone who loves RPGs.

    This is basically the Xenoblade Chronicles fans know and love and fought for back when Operation Rainfall was a thing and Nintendo America had no faith that it would sell well. Well it did! And now it’s portable, has better controls(no wiimote needed) and loads faster due to the better hardware. The biggest difference is that the characters have head and hand facelifts and look more up to current gen standards with higher detailing.
