The year is 2054, and Earth has been completely destroyed after a brutal intergalactic war between two immensely powerful alien races. The few survivors of humanity, aboard the spaceship USS White Whale, make a forced landing on the unknown and untamed planet Mira. At this critical moment, you take on the role of a brave soldier and member of the BLADE organization. Your mission is clear but extremely difficult: you must explore your new environment, gather valuable resources, and fight with all your strength to prevent the final extinction of the human race from the universe.

The heart of humanity's presence on planet Mira beats in New Los Angeles (NLA), the stronghold city you are trying to rebuild. By interacting with the colony's inhabitants, you will develop strong affinity bonds with your team members and unlock unique missions. By choosing your own specialized military class within the BLADE organization, you can take on even more duties. Your decisions and successes will directly help the city's development, gradually transforming it into a safe and thriving refuge for Earth's survivors.

The adventure on Mira becomes even more exciting when you share the experience with others. Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition offers rich online connectivity features. You can join an online team and cooperate with up to 31 other players from around the world. Take part in Squad Tasks to gather rare resources, complete challenging Online Missions, and join forces with the community to face the Nemesis Global Battles, the toughest and most epic encounters that will test your strategy and coordination.
