Underrated Music from Xenoblade X (UPDATED)
89Xenoblade Chronicles X's soundtrack is characterized by some of its most popular songs - however, this OST is chock-full of hidden gems that are often overlooked for one reason or another, whether it’s due to lack of usage within the game, unconventional instruments that take some getting used to, or difficult-to-remember titles. These songs might not be for everyone, but I hope there are at least a few songs on here that you'll learn to love!

You might have noticed that this video is an updated playlist (version 2.0) of my very first video on the channel with the same theme, so I wanted to talk about why I decided to remake it. After recently finishing my second playthrough of XCX, I realized a few things about my previous version of this playlist:
- It had several glaring omissions! I couldn't believe some of the songs I overlooked
- It didn't dig deep enough. It ended up being half "deep cuts" from the soundtrack and half "no one gave XCX's soundtrack enough credit so technically these songs are underrated in the grand scheme of video game soundtracks as a whole", and while I think a mix of these two ideas is important, I wanted this playlist to skew more towards the former
- In addition, I knew that at some point I wanted to make my own "Best of XCX OST", and in the process of making that video, I realized that most of the songs in my "Underrated XCX" video ended up on that one as well, resulting in me not really listening to my "Underrated XCX" video since it had been essentially subsumed by the "Best of XCX OST" video. I decided this would be a good opportunity for a little refinement, to get the most out of having multiple XCX playlists, and to shine a spotlight on some truly phenomenal tracks that might even be deep cuts for some dedicated XCX fans. I was pretty happy with how the two playlists turned out, and I hope you like them as well! :)
