Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Special Edition Will Be Made Available Again At A Later

If you’ve been having difficulties securing a special edition of Xenoblade Chronicles 3, and happen to be located in the US, you’re not alone.

Nintendo has issued an apology for users who were unable to pre-order a copy. It appears the My Nintendo Store has been experiencing a high volume of traffic. The good news is, that Nintendo will be making pre-purchases for this version available again at a later date – with more details to be shared in the future.

Here’s what Nintendo had to say about the situation on Twitter:
