Xenoblade Chronicles X is an ambitious and sprawling RPG that excels in exploration, world-building, and strategic combat.
Destructoid - Steven Mills - 10 / 10
Monolith Soft went the extra mile and added meaningful new content and quality-of-life features that actually improved on what was already a masterpiece experience. The Definitive Edition treatment makes Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition one of the best JRPGs on the Switch, and a must-play for fans of the genre.
Digitec Magazine - Domagoj Belancic - German - 5 / 5
Despite its streamlined gameplay mechanics, the “Definitive Edition” of “Xenoblade Chronicles X” is still a very complex and sometimes exhausting game. But if you invest the necessary time and energy in the title, you will be rewarded with countless magical goosebump moments.
The fantastically beautiful sci-fi game world is full of dangers and surprises. The addictive combat system offers an incredible amount of flexibility and variety. And the massive mechs are one of the coolest things I've ever had the pleasure of controlling in a game. In short: “Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition” is one of the best role-playing games and one of the best Switch games of all time.

Xenoblade Chronicles X was a very ambitious game that debuted on a practically dying console. But right now you can confidently say that you have found a perfect example of a game ahead of its time. This definitive edition not only shows the strength of the series, but jRPG genre as a whole.

Fantastic game, glad it's finally getting updated and getting the cliffhanger ending resolved.
That said, the original XBX still looks extremely good (at least when emulated at modern resolutions). For an HD remaster I haven't actually noticed any real visual improvements other than the character models being better.

Another Wii U game getting good reviews?
Another proof that the Wii U failure was created by Nintendo themselves, at least it died to give us the Switch
