Logicalbeat Confirms 4K and 60fps Work on Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition Nintendo Switch 2 Edition
Logicalbeat, the studio recently mentioned in connection with a Baten Kaitos remaster, has confirmed it contributed to the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition of Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition by supporting 4K visuals and a 60 frames-per-second framerate.
The announcement came via a post on X from Yoshiki Domae, Logicalbeat’s representative director, and sheds light on outside-studio collaboration for the updated release.
Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition originally launched on Nintendo Switch on May 29, 2020.
The Switch edition is a remaster of Monolith Soft’s 2010 Wii game Xenoblade Chronicles and includes improved visuals and a new epilogue titled "Future Connected." Monolith Soft developed the original and remastered versions, while Nintendo published them for Nintendo platforms and distributed the Definitive Edition via physical release and the Nintendo eShop.
In his message on X, Yoshiki Domae stated that Logicalbeat helped implement the 4K resolution and 60fps support for the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition and noted his personal enjoyment replaying the game.
Rewriting the representative’s remarks in journalistic terms: Domae announced that Logicalbeat cooperated on the technical enhancements that enable 4K output and a 60fps framerate for the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition of Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition, and added that he personally replayed the title and appreciated the updated Ether Jet experience.
Community reaction to the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition has been mixed on social platforms.
While many players praised the higher-resolution visuals and smoother framerate, others pointed out technical and visual issues after the release.
These discussions have been focused on social channels and public forums rather than official developer statements.
The involvement of external studios for platform-specific enhancements is not uncommon in modern console releases, particularly when publishers prepare versions optimized for new hardware.
Monolith Soft remains the credited developer of Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition, with Nintendo handling publishing and distribution across the Nintendo Switch ecosystem.
For players following Xenoblade Chronicles on Nintendo platforms, Logicalbeat’s confirmation provides concrete details about who worked on the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition’s performance upgrades.
Those interested can find the Definitive Edition on the Nintendo eShop and follow official Nintendo channels for any further technical updates or patch notes.
