The sequel to the Wii's 'Xenoblade Chronicles' was featured on the latest Nintendo Direct detailing the new innovations and what we can expect from the new game.

Players of the original will recognize the game as a immersive RPG experience, however the game now plans to expand on its open world with engaging and new environments.

"It detailed such diverse environments from the rolling forests of Primordia, to the Metroid-esque swamp Noctilum, to the cosmopolitan New Los Angeles, the only established city in mankind's new home of planet Mira. We also get to see how the map system works, as players will spend much of their time exploring the vast planet as they look for Lifeholds, pieces of the space ark that brought the remaining humans to Mira," writes Eurogamer.

'Xenoblade Chronicles X' will also allow players to travel through use of mechs called Skells, along with having use of them in combat.

The game will be released on April 29^th in Japan, but later this year in the states.
