List of all Switch demos
Posted on 3 days ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
Thousands of games are currently available on Switch, and there are a ton of demos out there for many of them. Not just Nintendo, but also third-parties are offering demos. We’ve now put together a comprehensive list of what’s out there.
Since our reader base is English-speaking, that’s what we’re focusing on here. In other words, we’re highlighting Switch demos that you can find in North America and Europe. Japan has a few extra demos on its end, but a majority of them are for titles that are not currently being sold in the west and are only playable in Japanese.
How to get pets in Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition
Posted on 2 weeks ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
Many of Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition’s Heart-to-Heart events require a pet dog or cat, and you can’t get any until you take on and complete the Nine Lives Affinity Mission that you can find in New Los Angeles. Once you do that, though, you’ll be able to access many more Heart-to-Heart events. Here’s everything you need to know on how to get pets in Xenoblade Chronicles X.
Xenoblade Chronicles X The Repair Job Affinity quest guide
Posted on 2 weeks ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
A few days back, we reported on The Repair Job, one of Xenoblade Chronicles X’s most egregious affinity quests. It’s particularly troublesome if you accept it as soon as it becomes available – at that point, you likely won’t have many probes placed around Mira. The first half of this quest is straightforward: talk to an NPC and then head to Starfall Basin to search the White Whale debris for specific parts. Once you return to the West Gate, you’ll be given the option to agree with Lin (the mechanical error should be fixed) or Tatsu (you want to stop working and get something to eat). The scene frames Lin as the one in the right, so we’d imagine many players chose to sympathize with her. And if you do, the quest becomes a bit more complicated.
How to change character appearance in Xenoblade Chronicles X
Posted on 2 weeks ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition is (currently) the only Xenoblade game that lets you design and name your own custom character. There are tons of customization options to choose from, and some of them even let you recreate characters from the numbered Xenoblade titles. That being said, some fans might prefer to go with what’s considered the “canon” name and appearance for their character – in this case, the canon name is Cross and the default options are automatically highlighted when you create your character for the first time. But what if you make a mistake and want to change your character later on? You actually can do this once you clear Chapter 5.
Xenoblade Chronicles X Desdemona, the Subterranean side quest guide
Posted on 3 weeks ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
Today, we’re continuing our early-game guide coverage for Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition with a guide for Desdemona, the Subterranean side quest. It features a fairly easy battle, but it’s actually surprisingly difficult to get to if you’re still early on in the game. Before you follow our guide, you will want to set this side quest on your tracker – that way, an icon will pop up in the overworld that will help you navigate our instructions better.
Xenoblade Chronicles X Welcome Back, Conner side quest guide
Posted on 3 weeks ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
For those playing Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition, we have a new guide up for the Welcome Back, Conner side quest.
In the game, the story progress is tied to your survey rate, which you can increase by placing probes and completing side quests. The Welcome Back, Conner side quest is for the most part just as straightforward as the other early-game side quests. You’ll find an NPC in Primordia (we finished this quest in Chapter 3) who asks you to find a missing BLADE team member. By this point, you may have the Follow Ball item that clearly shows you where to go, so you’ll want to follow that trail for the most part until you find the missing member on a cliff. Where this quest gets a bit tricky is the next part – you need to retrieve a comms device that’s surrounded by very high-level enemies.
How long it takes to beat Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition
Posted on 3 weeks ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
Now that Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition has officially launched (at least in some regions), some players might be curious on how long it takes to beat the game.
As you might expect, Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition is in line with other entries in the series as an incredibly long RPG adventure. Compared to the numbered trilogy, X focuses a bit less on story and more so on exploration with plenty of side quests to offer, too. For that reason, our time estimates differ depending on if you’re fast-tracking to the final boss or if you’re taking your time with all of the side content. Compared to the original version, the game does feature new content and story points, but unlike Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition, this new content isn’t available until the end of the game. In other words, it isn’t a separate campaign you can access from the title screen right after you boot up the game for the first time.
