Xenoblade Chronicles X Starts With All Five Continents Unlocked
The entire map of Monolith Software's upcoming Wii U-exclusive JPRG Xenoblade Chronicles X will be accessible from the start.
During today's Nintendo Direct broadcast, centered entirely around the highly anticipated JRPG, it was revealed that game's entire world, which is five times larger than its predecessor, will be unlocked right away.
Nintendo was careful to note, however, certain areas of the game's sprawling map may be home to enemies that are far too strong for you to defeat, and will kill you. As such, you'll want to explore the game's vast expanse with a bit of caution. Fortunately, you won't have to go at it completely alone, as the title features questing with up to four players online.

It's a double XP weekend for Call of Duty: Black Ops II. The 100% increase in XP started this morning at 10 am PT and runs until Monday at 10 am PT. Additionally, weapon XP is also doubled for the weekend.
The event is in conjunction with the Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 reveal scheduled for Sunday. Yesterday a live-action trailer for Black Ops 3 showed a bleak future where mankind has lost control of the technology it created.
