Yes! I've been waiting for this!

Monolith Soft's "X" a Game Designed to Last Decades, A Game that'll keep improving for Years, A Great Story that Never seems to End.

AsimLeonheart4620d ago

I not a Nintendo fan but I am a JRPG fan and honestly this game is very impressive. If the actual game lives up to these trailers then it will be a truly next-gen JRPG masterpiece. This game may just be the first killer app for Wii U and it may even force me to buy one.

ritsuka6664620d ago

The most BADASS trailer E3 I've ever seen. Sawano Hiroyuki, Mecha, Monolith-Soft = Best combination ever.

Gameexplain alwasy do the best trailer analysis.

_QQ_4620d ago

In their last X analysis they stated that none of them ever beat Xenoblade,it certainly shows in this trailer.can't wait for this game.

Xof4620d ago

To be fair, Xenoblade is an -enormous- game.

krontaar4620d ago

Only if you do every side quest. The main story is a typical JRPG length, if they couldnt even beat it then that's sad.

CLOUD19834620d ago

I beat it but because I like to explore & sidetrack a lot my final save was 200 something hours long :P but my chars was umber I kick last boss @ss for fun :D

What a game I enjoy it immensely me want moAr games like this one :P

For me, Xenoblade 2 and 3 and Final Fantasy 7 remake and rebirth are the best JRPGs or RPGs in general ever made. Yes, they even surpassed Expedition 33 in my honest opinion. Before, the Tales series was among my favorites, but I was very disappointed with their last game, Tales of Arise. Its world has become linear and not as expansive as their previous games. Fortunately, its battle gameplay is still very good. I hope that in the next Tales game, they will expand the game even more.

Hoping for a new Xenoblade game from Monolith Soft in this year's Nintendo General Direct. And it should be a Switch 2 exclusive.

Sircolby4524d ago

Yeah, Xenoblade 2 and 3 are amazing. I would have put Xenoblade 2 in first and 3 in second if I was ranking them.

Zeldafan6424d ago (Edited 24d ago )

The "worst" Xenoblade game is still better than 95% of games out there. Xenoblade 2 is my favorite rpg ever. All the Xenoblade games have incredible characters, soundtracks, voice acting, stories, world design and combat (save for Xenoblade 1 whose combat, while good, is not incredible).

What makes it even sadder is that if you jailbreak your Switch 1, it actually runs those games better than the Switch 2. Since you can, on the fly, change the rendering resolution and overclock the device to handle it.

I’m currently playing Xenoblade X like that and it’s great, no FPS drops, and even in handheld mode, the game looks very clear. Though, I have to say, I’m still a bit divided on whether I like or dislike the changes they made from the Wii U version. On one hand, everything looks cleaner and the models feel more alive, but on the other hand, it looks less unique.

Zeldafan6494d ago (Edited 94d ago )

Saying X looks less unique is not something I ever expected to read. I think the character models look quite a bit better in the Switch version (not that I thought they looked bad in the Wii U version). The world and monster design are some of the best I've ever seen in video games though I'll still give a slight edge to Xenoblade 2's world design. Leftherian Archipelago is my favorite location in any video game from a visual standpoint followed closely by endgame of Xenoblade 1.

Vits94d ago

If you think the Switch version models look unique, I have dozens of anime titles to sell to you.

Zeldafan6492d ago

I was talking about the world and monster design being unique, not the character models. Guess I should have made that clearer.

They should update these games for the switch 2 hardware, might as well as we wait for the next new xenoblade game.

repsahj183d ago

I hope this is a free update for switch 2. Specially XCX.

jznrpg183d ago

2 was the game I liked the least but it was still pretty good

Zeldafan64183d ago

2 is my favorite in the series even though it's the one I have the most issues with.

Duke19183d ago (Edited 183d ago )

So outside of a side by side comparison you would never notice a difference between the original title and the remaster?

It’s depressing how many people want to keep buying the SAME GAME on a new platform.

Zeldafan64183d ago

The Xenoblade games deserve way higher sales numbers than they get.

peppeaccardo182d ago (Edited 182d ago )

Switch 2 = Replay Station
