Chapter 7 (XCX)

Chapter 7 is a Story Mission in Xenoblade Chronicles X. This is the first mission where Skells can be used, so there are a lot of Skell enemies in this chapter.

A Lifehold unit was recently discovered, and states that Irina's team is out there to retrieve it. However, they need reinforcements thanks to the nearby Ganglion base causing trouble.
