Nintendo’s underappreciated Wii U console has turned out to be a blessing for its successor, the Switch. The company’s inventive games, such as Captain Toad puzzles and Donkey Kong adventures, have been successfully ported to the larger audience of the Switch. Even the best-selling game on the Switch, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, is an updated version of a Wii U classic.
The Wii U’s most significant adventure has now found its way onto the Switch: Xenoblade Chronicles X. Released in 2015, this sci-fi RPG follows the story of an ark-like spaceship that crashed on an untamed world called Mira after an alien invasion. Players take on the role of a settler as they explore the planet and establish a new community.
Xenoblade Chronicles X boasts a unique hard sci-fi setting and is a standalone experience, making it accessible to new players. While the story can become convoluted, the game’s world, Mira, is its main draw. With its vast landscape and unexplored regions, Xenoblade Chronicles X offers a captivating sci-fi adventure that’s worth revisiting on the Switch.
