Earlier this morning, Nintendo dropped a surprise announcement. Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition will be getting a Nintendo Switch 2 Edition. Another surprise is that it’s available today, well digitally at least. As of today, you can digitally upgrade your existing Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition Switch copy, to a Nintendo Switch 2 Edition which supports 4K resolution in TV mode. The announcement trailer also states that the game will support 60fps on Switch 2 as well.
The upgrade pack will only cost you $4.99. However, if you don’t already own a Switch copy, then the full Switch 2 Edition of Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition, will cost you $64.99. Also, Nintendo has announced that a physical copy will be available this upcoming April 16th, 2026. Feel free to check out the brand new announcement trailer down below.
Join up with BLADE to explore the planet Mira and help bring humanity back from the edge of extinction, now with a faster frame rate (up to 60 fps) and enhanced resolution (up to 4K).
