The earth will be no more. Humanity will come face to face with its greatest trial yet, to survive a new and exotic home called Planet Mira. To keep players informed and vigilant, this multi-part video series will ensure they are ready for their perilous mission.
Your New Home: In the first survival guide, players will get a glimpse of humanity’s newest home within Planet Mira, New Los Angeles (NLA). NLA, modeled off the original west coast city of the same name, is one of the last bastions of humanity.
Planetary Defense 101: Planet Mira is home to a wide array of dangerous life forms. To prepare players for the worst, this video will go over the mechanics of combat.
Large Skell Combat: With so many deadly predators in Planet Mira, some of them will require maximum firepower to defeat. Get a crash course on Skells with this video!
Mining Your Own Business: With Mira being an uncharted planet, it’s imperative that players learn everything they can about it. Using resources from the planet, players can manufacture their own arms to help with their journey.
To fully enjoy the physical (disc-based) version of the game, players can download four free and optional High Speed Data Packs in the Nintendo eShop on Wii U to help with the game’s performance. The Basic Data Pack is the most effective of the four and speeds up load times for elements of the massive open game world. The Enemy Data Pack loads enemy data even faster, the Player Data Pack accelerates armor load times when changing equipment in shops and the Skell Data Pack loads Skells faster when players are out in the field. The physical game is available now for Wii U in stores at a suggested retail price of $59.99. To learn more about storage options, visit here. The digital version of the game in the Nintendo eShop and the version purchased on the website comes with the Data Packs built in.
Also available now is the Xenoblade Chronicles X Special Edition, which includes the game, an art book, a USB drive pre-loaded with a selection of 10 music tracks from the game and a limited-edition art card, all in a specially designed package at a suggested retail price of $89.99.
