Xenoblade Chronicles Definitive Edition will feature a challenge mode that is not available in the original release or the Nintendo 3DS port.

　　Today, it has been confirmed that the soon to be released Nintendo Switch remaster will feature a Time Attack mode. This mode, which will be accessed from a portal found near the Furnace in Colony 9, will task players with clearing waves of enemies in both Free and Restricted modes as quickly as possible. Upon completion, players will receive Nopon Crystals that can be exchanged for rewards like new equipment, gems, and even new costumes for all party members.

　　Xenoblade Chronicles Definitive Edition is getting shown quite a bit lately. Last week, Nintendo shared a brand new trailer focused on the main cast as well as on the new Future Connected Epilogue. A Japanese overview trailer has also been shared earlier this month, focusing on the game's exploration and combat mechanics.

　　Xenoblade Chronicles Definitive Edition will feature massive visuals improvements over the original release as well as the already mentioned Future Connected Epilogue which will be set one year after the events of the main story.

　　The original Xenoblade Chronicles game, which marked the debut of fan-favorite character Shulk, comes to Nintendo Switch with a new epilogue story, Xenoblade Chronicles: Future Connected. This definitive edition of the RPG also looks better and plays smoother than ever before. The battle HUD and menu screens are easy to read and easy to use. Some of the music tracks have been remastered or remixed! Experience the majesty of the Definitive Edition game when it launches for Nintendo Switch on May 29. On the same day, the Definitive Works Set will also launch, featuring a 250-page artbook full of beautiful landscapes, imposing monsters and more.

　　Xenoblade Chronicles Definitive Edition launches on Nintendo Switch on May 29th worldwide.
