Synopsis

Xenoblade Chronicles is an action role-playing game developed by Monolith Soft and published by Nintendo for the Wii. Initially released in Japan in 2010, it was later released in the PAL regions in 2011 and in North America in 2012. A port for the New Nintendo 3DS was released in 2015. A remaster for the Nintendo Switch, titled Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition, was released in May 2020. The Switch version was ported to the Nintendo Switch 2 in 2026 as Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition. Xenoblade Chronicles is the first entry in the Xenoblade series, a subseries which forms part of the larger Xeno metaseries. Although it lacks direct narrative connections to previous Xeno games, like them, it incorporates aesthetic and narrative elements from both fantasy and science fiction. The game features navigation through an open world split into zones, side-quests tied to party members' affinity, and a real-time action-based battle system which incorporates Shulk's ability to see brief glimpses of the future.
