Xenoblade Chronicles X Famitsu Review Translated Into English

Xenoblade Chronicles X, the new role playing game developed by Monolith Soft. launching next week in Japan and later this year in North America and Europe exclusively on Wii U, is one of the more anticipated role playing games launching this year.

The anticipation and excitement surrounding the new role playing game from Monolith Soft. has only increased earlier this week, when the popular Japanese magazine Famitsu reviewed the game in its latest issue, awarding it a total score of 34/40. Scores mean nothing without some actual details, though, since there’s no way to know what the reviewers liked and didn’t like with just generic scores. Thankfully, the review has been translated by a dedicated fan from the GameFAQs boards called Sonsaru and, as expected, the four reviewers have really positive opinions on Xenoblade Chronicles X.

With so many positive impressions on Xenoblade Chronicles X coming from those who have already played the game, the wait for the North American and European releases has become even more unbearable. A new English presentation focused on the game has been aired a couple of days back but a release date hasn’t been confirmed so we don’t even know how long we will have to wait to be finally able to get our dirty hands on this beautiful role playing game.

Xenoblade Chronicles X is an open world role playing game which allows players to explore a vast world. Players can explore the world on foot or on Skells, huge mechs that have the ability to fly, traverse water and transform into difficult terrain vehicles. Skells can also be used in battle to unleash some serious damage to the game’s many huge enemies.

Xenoblade Chronicles X will be released on April 29th in Japan exclusively on Wii U. The North American and European version of the game will be released on a yet to be confirmed 2015 release date.
