Xenoblade Chronicles X

Beschreibung

Xenoblade Chronicles X is an action role-playing video game and part of the Xeno series, serving as a spiritual successor to Xenoblade Chronicles on the Wii. Similar to the original, the game is an open-world role-playing video game with an emphasis on exploration. Traveling can take place on foot or in large humanoid robots, approximately four times the height of the average playable character, called "Skells" ("Dolls" in the Japanese version), that the player may opt to control. The Skells can fly, traverse water, and transform into vehicles such as motorcycles or tanks. Aerial battles will also take place in the game.

Handlung

Xenoblade Chronicles X opens as humanity, warned of its impending destruction in the crossfire between two warring alien races, constructs interstellar arks to escape Earth. However, only a few arks escape the destruction, including the White Whale ark. Two years after launching, the White Whale is attacked and transported to Mira. During the crash-landing, the Lifehold—a device housing most of the human colonists—is separated from the White Whale, and lifepods carrying colonists are scattered across Mira. The avatar is awoken from a lifepod by Elma and brought back to New Los Angeles. While suffering from amnesia, the avatar joins BLADE, working with Elma and Lin to recover more lifepods and search for the Lifehold. During their missions across Mira, BLADE encounters multiple alien races and learns that those attacking them are part of the Ganglion coalition, an alliance led by the Ganglion, who are intent on destroying humanity.
