Rock Band DLC Additions for Xbox 360, PlayStation®3 system and Wii™


Looks like the actors from the UK edition might be left in tact for the North American release.


Let’s add this in here for the sake of completeness, shall we?

I’ll just say that those of you who haven’t imported the game and live in North America should absolutely purchase this game. It’s one of my favorite titles of all time!

It’s man vs. machine in a new game coming to Nintendo’s Wii™ console in spring. Xenoblade Chronicles™ asks players to use the Monado blade to take on a seemingly endless series of invading Mechon robots in a sweeping role-playing adventure.

The main character is Shulk, a weapons researcher who must confront the Mechon by wielding the ancient Monado blade. It’s the only weapon that has any effect against the Mechon, and it also enables Shulk to see the future.


The news is now 100% official. Xenoblade Chronicles will be coming to North America in April 2012. It appears that the game will be sold exclusively at GameStop and on Nintendo’s online store.

You can pre-order the game here starting December 13 or here from GameStop right now.

Nintendo just posted to their Facebook page :

“It’s confirmed! Next year, Wii players throughout North America can wield the Monado blade and join the epic battle between the Homs and the Mechons in Xenoblade Chronicles. Like this post if you’re ready for an adventure on the surface of two frozen Titans!”

You can find a fact sheet after the break.


Nintendo has just updated their Facebook page with character art from Xenoblade Chronicles, which all but confirms that the title will be released in North America. Rumors surfaced earlier today that Xenoblade will be a GameStop exclusive. Since then, Kotaku “verified with several GameStop locations” that the news is true.

So while an official announcement has yet to be made, the rumors are 99% confirmed. Once we receive a press release – which may come later today – there’ll be no question that Xenoblade will launch in North America next year.

Update: VG247 claims that a local GameStop salesperson confirmed the information.

Could Xenoblade Chronicles actually a release in North America? If a new database listing at GameStop is to be believed, the answer is a resounding “yes”.

It seems that the title will be released exclusively through the retailer. Notice the “Xenoblade Chronicles GS Exclusive” entry in the image above.

If the photo can be trusted, Xenoblade Chronicles will launch in North America on April 3, though that could be a temporary date.
