Xenoblade Chronicles 1, 2 and 3 are all getting Switch 2 upgrades this year, starting today!
by Stefan L · tsaYou can finally stop asking for Nintendo Switch 2 upgrades of the Xenoblade Chronicles series, because Nintendo has announced that Xenoblade Chronicle Definitive Edition, Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and Xenoblade Chronicles 3 are all getting Switch 2 upgrades this year!
Here are all the release dates
- Xenoblade Chronicle Definitive Edition – digital version and upgrade pack today, physical version 30th July
- Xenoblade Chronicles 2 – digital version and upgrade pack 30th July, physical version 1st October
- Xenoblade Chronicles 3 – digital, physical and upgrade pack 3rd December
All games promise 4K and 60fps docked and 1080p and 60fps in handheld, though we hope that it’s a better upscaler than was used for Chronicles X.
With Chronicles X having had a Switch 2 upgrade (for better or for worse) this means that all games in the popular RPG series will have been upgraded for the latest generation.
There’s no word just this second on pricing, which we’ll have to dig out after the show, but there are additional features for each.
The first game will have a faster mode of vehicle-based travel, Chronicles 2 will have new action battles with the ability to control squads of Blades, and Chronicles 3 will have a new horde-based mode.
Oh, and there’s also the announcement of a brand new Xenoblade game…
