How long it takes to beat Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition
Posted on 1 day 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.

Donkey Kong Country Returns HD 100% completion checklist
Posted on 1 month ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
Donkey Kong games are notoriously difficult to 100 percent complete. In terms of fellow Nintendo Switch games, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze is tough as nails if you’re going for full completion. Donkey Kong Country Returns HD follows this trend – there are tons of collectibles to find, over 80 levels to complete, a time attack mode that takes way too long to load, and an unlockable Mirror Mode that makes everything even more challenging. Take it from us – full 100 percent completion really isn’t worth it here – but if you’re up for the task anyway, here’s the checklist you’ll want to go by.

Posted on 3 months ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
Starting today, Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are hosting a 5-Star Shiny Rayquaza raid event that’s accessible to all players. Previous raid events we’ve reported on have been 7 stars, which are significantly more difficult. In other words, even though this is a Legendary Pokemon raid, it shouldn’t give you quite as much trouble as the other raid events Pokemon Scarlet and Violet have hosted in the past. Here’s how to take down and catch the Shiny Rayquaza raid before the event ends on January 5, 2025.

We’ve put together a list of 100 percent completion criteria that you’ll need to complete in order to fully finish the game. Full game spoilers are contained within, so keep that in mind before you continue.
How to complete all challenges in Mario & Luigi: Brothership
Posted on 3 months ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
If you’re going for full 100 percent completion in Mario & Luigi: Brothership, one part of the game you’ll need to clear is its 29 challenges. Despite being called challenges, most of these actually aren’t particularly challenging at all – moreso time-consuming. Challenges are completed by performing certain tasks in battle, and clearing each one grants a small reward. We’ve completed all 29 challenges in Mario & Luigi: Brothership and have a few tips for you if you’re looking to do the same.
Do note that some of these challenges involve using Bros. Moves, which means the name and identity of all ten Bros. Attacks will be spoiled here. The names of certain locations will be listed as well. We won’t be including any story details, however, so keep that in mind before you move on.
