US and EU version of 'Xenoblade Chronicles X' censors one character outfit, plus Best Buy offers free pizza as pre-order pizza
The upcoming Wii U MMORPG “Xenoblade Chronicles X” features a lot of ways to customise the game’s characters. The open-world game is also riddled with varying characters which the players could meet. New reports reveal that one of these characters has been censored and altered for the Western release of the game.
The Japanese version of “Xenoblade Chronicles X” has been released well over a year ago and as such, it has some regional differences with the US and EU version of the game. One of the versions censors one character's outfit that is too revealing.
The character in question is the 13-year old Lin, Eurogamer reports. In the Japanese version of “Xenoblade Chronicles X,” Lin is depicted as wearing nothing more than a skimpy and revealing bikini. It is also worth noting that Lin is a battle-ready character so her outfit choice is rather questionable.
When it releases in other regions this Dec. 4, Lin will be older. Instead of 13, Lin will be aged 15. She’ll also be wearing shorts and a less revealing top.
In other news, Best Buy is offering what seems to be an odd pre-order incentive for “Xenoblade Chronicles X.” Other pre-order bonuses for games include exclusive in-game items, but Best Buy is offering free pizza for those who pre-order “Xenoblade Chronicles X,” Siliconera reports.
The promo only applies to the standard version of “Xenoblade Chronicles X.” Players should’ve bought the game by Dec. 3 and must pick the copy up before Dec. 10. Those qualified for the promo will then be given a voucher which is usable till Jan. 31, 2016.
“Xenoblade Chronicles X” will launch for the Wii U on Dec. 4 in Europe and North America. The game will feature a massive open-world filled with giant monsters. Players will be given the option to traverse the land on foot or on giant robots called “Skells.” “Xenoblade Chronicles X” could be played either on online or in single-player mode.
