Rumor: Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Could Be Getting a Switch 2 Version

by

Some enthusiasts speculate that Monolith Soft might be considering a Nintendo Switch 2 adaptation of the widely acclaimed Xenoblade Chronicles 2. If this speculation proves to be true, it would certainly bring excitement to fans of Xenoblade Chronicles 2, as an upgrade for the classic RPG on Nintendo’s latest platform could greatly enhance their gaming experience.

The Xenoblade Chronicles franchise was initiated in 2010, and since then, it has seen several mainline installments. Among these, Xenoblade Chronicles 2, which debuted in 2017, proved to be particularly successful, selling more than 2.7 million copies globally. So far, a total of four mainline games have been launched for the series, with the latest being Xenoblade Chronicles 3, which came out in 2022 on the original Nintendo Switch.

Rumor Suggests Possible Nintendo Switch 2 Port for Xenoblade Chronicles 2

Gamers have recently come across a job posting from Monolith Soft on social media, featuring a GIF of a scene from Xenoblade Chronicles 2. The scene in question showcased altered lighting and enhanced background details compared to the initial game, leading fans to speculate whether it hinted towards an upgraded version for Nintendo Switch 2. Fans debated if this could mean better graphics, user-friendly improvements, or even alterations to the gameplay, given that Xenoblade Chronicles 2 was exclusively launched on the original Switch during its inaugural year. Given these circumstances, it’s plausible to assume they might be planning an update for the popular title on the new console.

The increased credibility of the rumor might stem from the recent launch of Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition.

If Xenoblade Chronicles 2 makes its way to the latest platform, it’s likely that the price will be higher than the original Switch version due to similar upgrades for Nintendo Switch 2 releases. There’s a chance that Monolith Soft may launch a Complete or Definitive Edition on both the initial and new consoles. However, it’s important to remember that there’s no official confirmation from Monolith Soft about a Switch 2 port being in development, so this is just speculation for now.

Xenoblade Chronicles 2,” an expansive role-playing game, is known to provide over a hundred hours of content for dedicated players. A potential remaster could serve as an excellent opportunity for gamers yet to experience it. This remaster may also include ‘Torna – The Golden Country,’ a DLC introduced in 2018, enhancing the game’s scope and appeal for both newcomers and returning veterans of this well-loved role-playing title.
