The next massive sci-fi role-playing game from Monolith Soft, the creators of Baten Kaitos and Xenoblade Chronicles, comes exclusively to Wii U. A terrible intergalactic war leaves just a handful of Earth survivors trying to live in a beautiful yet hostile environment. Players engage in battles against powerful creatures of all forms and sizes using the deep battle system that builds on the triumphs of Xenoblade Chronicles for Wii.
- Riding and controlling a weaponized mech, players can explore every inch of the massive open world displayed in gorgeous high-definition graphics. The world is filled with strange and imaginative creatures, from small bugs to giant dinosaurs.
- As characters improve in different classes, they will learn new combat and defensive skills, or Arts. Players can customize the Arts palette as their characters learn new Arts. All Arts have a “recast” time – once cast, the player must wait out a “cooldown” period before that Art can be used again.
- Players can customize everything about the main character’s appearance, including gender, shapes, height, skin color, voice and tattoos.

No wonder it’s getting a 2015 release.
This game is going to be worth the wait. Imagine if they included the original Xenoblade in HD on the same disc!!
Like bayo? Oh YES!!!
That would be nice. And the gameplay could be fixed to use the Gamepad instead of the Wiimote.
Oh my… I love me some customization! Too bad it’s due next year… Was really looking forward to this by the holidays… Oh well, more time to polish!
I thought it will be realeased in this year.. but ok..
the games seems to be awesome
I’m still worried for Wii U. What is there to look forward to between now and Smash Bros
Bayonetta 2 (two games in one package), Watch Dogs for Wii U, Mario Kart 8 for the entire generation, etc.
MARIO KART 8
I meant something to play through. Mario Kart is great but it’s not really a game that I would play for hours.
Bayonetta/ Watch dogs = No more guns please
Sonic Boom is another 2014 exclusive. You seem to be really picky about your games. You’re missing out bro.
but sonic boom gameplay is honestly lame.
Oh, when did you get a chance to play it?
In his world of delusions where Mario is a big muscular guy shooting guns, Link is using dragon powers while screaming fos ro dah, Pokemon look like actual monsters that terrify little kids so the “hardcore adults” can enjoy the series better, and many other stuff that he finds “cool.”
Mario kart offers a free game as well, then you got hyrule warriors in September and splatoon and shovel knight along with many new additions to the store. Nintendo has so many games I can’t keep up. You got a list of games already out. Let’s face it, they could have a line up like xbox or ps so I’m not worried at all
Star Fox is coming to Wii U
Bayonetta 2 and hyrule warriors
I want this game so bad every since the first trailer :c I’m still curious if it’ll be online or not, though..
”Players can customize everything about the main character’s appearance, including gender, shapes, height, skin color, voice and tattoos.” Amazing news. Even though I’m dissapointed with texture’s of the faces (pretty sure that will get fixed) this game has me hyped big time!
This gonna be epic.
Just shut up and take my money.
now this is a true wiiu must have.
True that!
Day 1 purchase for me then…
The beginning threw me. Though it was the HUD for Metroid. Realized pretty quickly it wasnt. ahh those few seconds though…..
Still looks great though.
So…2015…doesn’t sound so bad, but honestly, I’m concerned if a summer release of Smash Bro = Oct 3rd, that 2015 = Christmas, 2015.
they even told investors that the game is coming in 2014. but yet it’s coming in 2015.. a bit sad. but they should just remake a xenoblade chronicles(wii) for WiiU meanwhile. it is really a game that is hard to get, and that would be close to 100 on metacritic if it was graphically good.
for america, the game most likely will need to be translated, voiced and clean up for america, usually jrpgs take a while to come us, similar things happen to FF
I’m hoping Xenoblade Chronicles X uses voice actors from the UK like it’s predecessor.
so so disappointed it will be release in 2015, that’s really put me down. If I knew it i would not finish xenoblade
wtf the graphics are just awuful. the definitely looks like a ps3 and xbox 360 game. the texture quality even looks awuful compared to even some 360. i have no single hype for this game at all.
So you’ve gone ahead and pre-ordered it already then?
You don’t like any Wii U game or even the console at all, so I really don’t see why you’re even here.
^ blind troll
^ Sosorry , you are just a blind troll! Nobody takes you seriously around here! Just sayin’..
You dont like anything. Why are you still breathing?
And yet you are getting some of those 360 games for your 360. So shut the fuck up!
Character customizations, eh? Is the main character still going to take part in cutscenes verbally? I hope so. So many voice actors will be needed, though. Good thing Nintendo can afford it. It’s nice to have Monolith Soft as a Nintendo 1st party developer. Maybe we can get a new Baten Kaitos down the road.
This looks even worse than the original Xenoblade Chronicles. : /
Nice try, ASS Pirate. Why in the blue HELL are you watching cut scenes. There are no gameplay in this trailer, dumb ass!
Right here is the perfect website for everyone who really wants
to find out about this topic. You understand a whole lot its almost hard to argue with you (not that I actually would want to…HaHa).
You certainly put a brand new spin on a subject that’s been written about for a long time.
Excellent stuff, just great!
