Delve Back Into Xenoblade Chronicles 2 With The Nintendo Switch 2 Edition

Lost in a sea of clouds, entire civilizations rest on the backs of Titans. As the giant beasts march toward death, the last hope is a scavenger named Rex—and Pyra, a living weapon known as a Blade. Command a group of Blades and lead them to countless strategic victories as you search for the fabled paradise Pyra calls home. This journey has been enhanced with 4K resolution in TV mode, and full HD in handheld mode, at 60 frames per second—and with smoother and sharper cutscenes. Discover a new rare Blade—and control your Blades to fight in mercenary squad battles.

There's an additional Blade out there for you to find! MOMO has two modes, real and imaginary, that you can swap between to change her appearance and elemental affinity. She also has a quest for you to complete. Not only that, but you can directly command your Blades in the Merc Assault action battle mode! Choose up to six Blades to send out on Merc Missions where you move, fight, and swap freely between the Blades under your command. Combining Blade Specials will be key to victory!

Unlock new outfit designs for Pyra and Mythra. Customize the look of Pyra and Mythra with new outfit designs exclusive to this Nintendo Switch 2 Edition game. These appear not only while you're adventuring, but also during cutscenes.
