About

Xenoblade Chronicles is a game made by Monolith Soft and Nintendo
The game was announced during E3 2009 under its original title Monado: Beginning of the World. It was later renamed Xenoblade in January 2010 to honor Tetsuya Takahashi, the director of the game and all prior games in the Xeno series. The game was first released on June 10, 2010 in Japan, and later localized and released in August 19, 2011 in Europe. Despite this, significant time passed without any confirmation on a North American release, which eventually led to part of the Operation Rainfall fan movement to generate interest in a release in the region. Despite Nintendo’s official word that they were not influenced by the movement, the game was eventually released in North America on April 6, 2012.
