How's it popping? Pretty good, actually.
Getting stuck on a whole different planet has never looked this good.
Nintendo has released a trailer confirming a Switch 2 edition for Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition, which will be available shortly digitally with a physical version to follow on April 16. The upgrade pack can be purchased for US$4.99 or equivalent.
The 12 chapter RPG's upgrade includes enhanced framerate (60 frames per second) and targets 4k docked resolution.
Not loving having to pay for a framerate update on a game that just came out a year ago, but at least it's only $5. Wish Nintendo had given the other Xeno games an update before I finished them last year. At least I'll be able to enjoy this one at a stable framerate.
Coulda been woise, at least it wasn't $10 like Pokémon PiZzA.
I was going to buy 2 and 3 but will hold off in hopes of switch 2 physical versions.
So apparently this "upgrade" has some major issues because it makes the game visually worse, especially in handheld mode.
