"Last year's Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Editionwas significant for a few reasons. It was the final major first-party Switch game ahead of the Switch 2's arrival in June, and the last doomed Wii U game to be granted a second life on Nintendo's infinitely more successful console. Nearly a year on, a Switch 2 update for one of the most technically impressive games Nintendo has ever published has finally arrived."
"As impressive as the Switch remake of the 2015 Wii U game was, given the frankly absurd size of its open-world setting, you could almost feel the hardware creaking under its weight every time you booted the game up, so this patch was much-needed. Unfortunately the graphical and performance enhancements aren't free for anyone who already owns the Switch version of Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition. A $5 upgrade pack is available on the eShop, and the Switch 2 game costs $65 on its own."
Xenoblade Chronicles X has received a Nintendo Switch 2 update adding up to 60fps performance and 4K resolution when docked. The enhanced edition is available as a $5 eShop upgrade for current Switch owners or as a $65 standalone Switch 2 purchase. A physical release is scheduled for April 16. The game features a sprawling, seamless open world, a hard sci-fi story, and a strong emphasis on side quests. Players can eventually pilot giant mechs to fly around the planet Mira. The Switch remake pushed hardware limits, so the performance improvements are notable.
