A rumour posted on TiLMENDOMiNATiON’s Twitter page suggests that Monolith Soft are in the process of making a sequel to Xenoblade Chronicles X for the NX. Tilmen suggests that it would be more story based, and will allow you to transfer your save data from its Wii U predecessor.
RUMOR: Aliens told me that the successor game #XenobladeX2 is in development for NX. More story focused. #WiiU Savegame transfer included…

At the moment, this is just a rumour, but here’s to hoping it’s true. If it is, more information should come to light in the coming months surrounding this.
Thanks, N-Dub Nation
You’re welcome, natalielevig!
I don’t see why they WOULDN’T be working on the sequel, the game is great and it’s successful.
Yeah no. The one dev from Monolith already stated they were doing something different.
I was about to say the same thing.
Well judging from how well Xenoblade Chronicles X has sold worldwide I don’t think a sequel can be denied. I don’t think it’s gonna happen anytime soon when the NX arrives but certainly after their next project they’ll definitely do it. It would only make sense from a financial point of view
Exactly. Maybe in the future, but somewhat unlikely now, since Takahashi wants to do something different:
“I tend to get bored with things pretty easily, so I’d like to keep creating things with different approaches every time,” says Takahashi. “Along those lines, I’d definitely like my next project to look and feel pretty different from this one. The ‘Xeno’ name, by the way, really just exists to make it clear that these are Tetsuya Takahashi productions.”

But you never know… Things changes in a heartbeat.
Working on something different doesn’t mean it couldn’t be a sequel, it could follow on but have new characters, places, story etc
Yeah, it definitely is a possibility, although the interpretation you’re suggesting is not the most obvious and direct one.
That’s like me saying “there’s a new Mario in development for the NX.” it’s obviously going to happen.
No shit. XP Either Galaxy 3 (or an HD Super Mario Galaxy Trilogy edition) or maybe Sunshine 2 following up the hype of Splatoon which followed up that game’s concept to turn into their version of Gears of War.
Seeing as X was one of the earlier Wii U games to be shown, I don’t expect this to come before the end of NX…
Or in its short (Wii U) mid-life crisis on repeat if the worst should happen..and would likely.
I think it’s going to happen anyway, but this guy is very unreliable. To the point where every single ‘rumour’ he’s created has been fake. He said F-ZERO was happening countless times, and that Diddy Kong Racing 2 was also happening. These were back in like 2013/2014.
Just, no.
I remember when Tilmen said that Nintendo could possibly be releasing a new Gamepad sometime ago. Pretty much false.
But when it comes to unboxings and gameplay, I like his videos.
His videos are good, sometimes great, even. But his fake rumour leaks are just attention seeking and pointless.
I know, right? I can’t remember him nailing anything… But, still, his other videos are indeed great.
I find him to be extremely obnoxious and not very eloquent in general. His Devil’s Third review comes to mind.
I know what you mean, but I think he plays a character in order to look exactly like that.
But that’s me…
This needs to happen. Xenoblade X left a whole bunch of unanswered questions.
Is this the first original Nintendo game rumored for the NX? Because if it is, I welcome our new speculative overlords.
From Xenosaga Episode I through Xenoblade Chronicles X, MONOLITH SOFT is one of Nintendo’s best RPG developers in the world. Takahashi & Kojima (Koh) truly deserve a sequel for the Big N’s new system(s).
Don’t forget the Zelda rumours.
That’s why I said ‘original’.
That’s a loose term. I guess meant stems from an NX release vs Zelda coming from the U and transgressing to the NX.
I just thought you meant a highlight Nintendo title, which Xenoblade Chronicles is now.
Exactly, Commander! Yes… YES!!!!!!
Fucking yes. Mira still has a lot of unsolved mysteries.

I fucking knew it. There too MANY fucking hole in that game. You leave holes so that you can fill them in in the the next entry. Honestly speaking I would like to see each race branch out from New LA create their own divisions. You already have fucking made. Just simply add their HQ’s.
>>>Anubis>>>
Anubis?
>>>Yes, or why have you changed to fake?>>>
>>>Defeated by your own hands it seems>>>
Pretty much. I’ve step down from the boss position. For only like 2 days or maybe two weeks. Blah blah. I’m a fake ass bitch. So laugh hoes.
Mistwalker be a bro and make a Last Story sequel for NX!
Agreed. I want to see the rest of the Empire being freed of it’s corruption. The first game made it pretty clear Lazulis Island wasn’t the only kingdom within the Empire that was corrupt.
They already said they were making a console Xeno game and it would be more story driven. Now as for it being a sequel to X and the save data tranfering I’m not sure. Though, that would be just the most EPIC thing ever!
Given all the plotholes and unanswered threads it’d make sense and transferring data to let you use your old character, maybe even with the same weapons and affinity would make a lot of sense

to be honest i don’t want the NX to be release this year i wanted it to be release in 2017
>>>Unless the rumour about the NX being 2 consoles then it probably will be released in 2017 + for the main machine>>>
maybe or else nintendo will finally take its course
>>>As we know it anyway, Nintendo won’t fall but they will fall as a gaming Empire>>>
i know right or else they will fail
Pingback: Rumour: Monolith Soft sta già sviluppando un sequel di Xenoblade Chronicles X per NX? | VG247.it
Grammar in the title…
It’s an international thing. Rumour = Europe and Canada – Rumor = United States
>>>Which part?>>>
Rumour/rumor is a spelling consideration, so that’s not the issue. Use of a/an is a standard throughout all English variations.
>>>Well as far as my understanding goes with human languages, you usually put an “an” before “X” words like Xbot>>>
>>>Whether the same goes for Xenoblade I’m not 100% sure>>>
‘An’ typically goes before words that are phonetically spoken with a vowel sound, not just certain letters. So it would be ‘an’ X-ray, as it’s spoken ‘Ex-Ray’, whereas Xenoblade is phonetically ‘Zen-o-blade’ so would be ‘a’. That’s rule of thumb, but also just reading it aloud is another way of making sure!
>>>Thanks for clearing that up, my calculations were showing a 86.5% certainty for that being the case>>>
And I was recently thinking a remaster of Xenoblade Chronicles X on the NX would look freaking fantastic. Sequel is even much, much better. The rumour makes sense, as I feel confident we can continue seeing more Xenoblade for future Nintendo consoles, but still doesn’t mean it is true.
It is very likely in development, the stage is the question… story is where they are starting and it all takes time… Not sure how many writers there would be (someone with the the other games can say better) but likely just a couple start formulating the story and it might be an outsourced thing in that someone who isn’t a developer starts writing an outline for that… Either way, 3-5 years probably
Oh yea, I’ve been loving playing Xenoblade Chronicles X on my youtube channel.
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwbs0TWIFG5c-19MyZVatWg
If you’ve played the game you knew this from long ago. The game ends in a cliffhanger that teased a sequel like crazy
But please Monolith, at least make Cross a character with substance. His empty personality was a massive disappointment. I don’t care if you have to remove the character customization, just look at how well Fire Emblem Awakening did it
Exactly! I need a Shulk.
Cross is no– oops… don’t want to spoil ya.
Already beaten the game, but we literally get 0 information about him. I mean yeah, it’s super duper obvious he’s the “hero who saved the white whale” from the very second you start the game (this game is sci-fi tropes incarnate) but we really get nothing regarding that, no relationships or anything. The only chemistry he has with ANYBODY is with Lyn, where they have a somewhat “father-daughter” (or mother-daughter) relationship
The hero who “will” save the White Whale. Elma has the previous title.
“Wasn’t it a tandem Skell? You were with… oh sorry”
Can we quit making reports about rumors? It’s getting annoying as 95% of the time they are FALSE.
“will allow you to transfer your save data from its Wii U predecessor.”
Well I’m guaranteed to buy the NX if this is true. I’m 100+ hours in with most side missions done, and half story.
If it’s true, please make it so that character affinity transfers over. I don’t care if I need to grind all the way back from level 1 XP-wise, but character affinity is the biggest pain in the ass I’ve ever encountered in a videogame.
I already lost a large portion of my life to Xenoblade X, so a sequal would just eradicate me from existence.
Well, that is IF it is true. IF! I-F.
Oh Damn, I bought my Wii U three years ago for the sole purpose of playing Xenoblade X. Now they will make me buy a new console on release day only to play yet another sequel to Xenoblade that will probably be released on 202X.
Hell, I know I will end up doing it again, but I hope this time its not just a dust collector until Xenoblade is released.
PS: On a side not still waiting SMTxFE western release date.
Can’t wait I’m grinding lao, l, and will finish yelv after to level 40 as of now
Interesting. Now if Monolith Soft could just stop the far right fools at Nintendo of America from removing features that some might actually want… like a boob slider. Add an ass slider, too, just to piss off the SJWs & other Nintendite scurge that support NoA’s ridiculous censorship/localization/whatever bullshit damage control defense these fanbitches want to use to defend their False Almighty God Nintendo.
8-4 was involved in the localization… not Nintendo of America by itself.
In that case, they both should be eliminated.
I don’t know what the hell is a SJW, but yes, piss them off and give me back my damn sliders!
This link will answer that question for you.

The very next tweet from him is this:
“#PokemonZ will be Free2Start NX launch title.
– mmorpg…
– 3 developers working together
– Sync XY and ORAS Saves.”
So yeah. Tilmen was just having a little fun, and I love watching him for that sort of thing. I’m not the least bit surprised that N-Dubt Nation were the ones who tried to sell this as a story. Their enthusiasm was great at first, especially around 2010 when I first found them, but it really does reside in the blindest corner of the internet’s fanboy region.
All that said, I’d love for a save transfer feature to occur with certain Nintendo games on the NX. Splatoon definitely needs to get player data over there come the time an NX entry is released. Starting from scratch would likely kill that community.
I’m so on the fence about buying this now. 😮
It wouldn’t be possible since Xenoblade X hasn’t even hit 1 million yet according to my current knowledge. X/
