The screenshots were revealed by the official Japanese account of the game (sources 1, 2, 3, 4, 5).

You can check them out in the gallery below.

We get to see the quest log menu, designed to be easy to read and understand, and quest markers that appear both on the map and on top of your quest destination.

The Colony 6 Reconstruction has been made more intuitive. From the dedicated menu screen, you can see the amount of money and materials required at any time.

Another menu screen shows the characters you have met on your adventure. Their profiles include hours of activity, places where they can be found, and more.

We also see the ability to apply the look of your favorite weapon and equipment to any other that you’re using. That way you can have both the performance of your most powerful items combined with your preferred looks.

Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition releases exclusively for Nintendo Switch on May 29, 2020.

If you want to see more, you can enjoy more images portraying the rich cast of the game, another gallery showing environments, a reveal about music, a trailer from the latest Nintendo Direct, and the original announcement.
