Can and will are also different things. Why move your holiday RPG title into the same launch window as the RPG that's going to end up winning Game of the Year, especially when your RPG isn't gonna sell well as it is? It's the same principle as dropping the price; they very likely CAN, but when you're underperforming heavily already it makes no financial sense to throw away more money that could be going in the coffers.
Keep in mind that games are often done well in advance, as is anything involving media, but the publisher won't just release it RIGHT NOW because it's done. The game already has a small fanbase that's buying it day one no matter what, but I know that if it came out any closer to Fallout 4 I'd end up leaving my Limited Edition copy sealed on my shelf because I'd still be in full Fallout mode.

Fallout and Xenoblade are in different universes of genres, platforms and audiences.
