An unexpected development has surfaced – Monolith Soft’s Wii U title Xenoblade Chronicles X appeared unexpectedly on a Microsoft webpage detailing gaming optimization features for Edge. Upon inspection, the listing positions the game alongside PC releases such as World of Warcraft and Half-Life 2. The accompanying description states:
“PC gamers frequently look up tips, guides, and other help while they play. For a selection of popular PC games, Microsoft Edge Game Assist makes this easier than ever by highlighting helpful resources whenever you open a new tab. Many popular PC games are already enhanced for Game Assist, with more on the way. Here are some of the games that are enhanced with tips and guides”
Community discussions suggest multiple possibilities, including administrative oversights or automated system errors. Following Nintendo’s acquisition of Monolith Soft, the studio launched Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition on Switch, with future projects presumably tied to upcoming hardware iterations.
While Xbox securing major Nintendo IP seems improbable, Microsoft has confirmed plans to release select titles on Nintendo platforms and expressed interest in the next-generation Switch. Separately, unverified reports indicate the company may have shelved development of a proprietary handheld device.
