In a surprise announcement, Nintendo has revealed the upcoming release of Xenoblade Chronicles X Definitive Edition for the Nintendo Switch. This comprehensive version of the expansive open-world sci-fi JRPG is set to launch on March 20, 2025, marking the long-awaited transition of this cult-favorite game from the Nintendo Wii U to the beloved handheld platform.
Notably, this title won’t simply be a straightforward port.

Fans who have been eagerly advocating for a port since the Switch debuted in 2017 can finally breathe a sigh of relief. This edition promises to be the ultimate way to dive into Xenoblade Chronicles X, allowing players to navigate the unexplored planet of Mira and contribute to the establishment of a flourishing human colony. Alongside improved graphics and enhanced resolution, players can anticipate new narrative content.
While detailed information remains undisclosed, it gives avid gamers who enjoyed the original a compelling reason to return. Initially released on the Nintendo Wii U, Xenoblade Chronicles X was one of the final first-party offerings for that underperforming console.
After the launch of the Nintendo Switch, the company began porting several titles over from the Wii U, including popular games such as Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury, Hyrule Warriors Definitive Edition, and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. However, as time passed without any sign of Xenoblade Chronicles X, many fans lost hope for a revival on the thriving Nintendo Switch. Fortunately, that wait is now over.
The Xenoblade Chronicles X Definitive Edition will be available exclusively on the Nintendo Switch starting March 20, 2025.
