Yes, I'm sure that joke has been done so many times, but how could we not use it with this announcement!? At the end of today's Nintendo Direct, to the delight and surprise of many Xeno fans, Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition was announced. Originally released on the Wii in 2012 in North America, with a New 3DS port following in 2015, this latest release looks to give this huge RPG a graphical overhaul.

In the teaser, we get a good look at Shulk, Fiora (who look similar to their Xenoblade Chronicles 2 redesigns), Reyn and Melia, as well as a sneak peak at some fan favourite locations. The lush Gaur Plains were on display, as well as the crystal clear waters of Eryth Sea, and if you stick around to the end it looks like there's a new location which was cut out of the original release (see below!). Looks like we'll have to wait and find out!
