Today’s Xenoblade Chronicles X Twitter update introduces another two designers working on the Wii U RPG.

First up is Yoko Tsukamoto. Director Tetsuya Takahashi, who published the tweets, says that by mentioning Tsukamoto’s name, fans will understand that the world isn’t just made up of sci-fi elements. That’s because Tsukamoto is a well-known fantasy illustrator.

Takahashi additionally introduces Takashi Kojo, an enemy designer. The highlight of Kojo’s designs will be huge enemies. He’s also working on designing the strongest unique enemy in the game and the Growth Soldiers.

Update: The page has been pulled and Mega Man Zero isn’t on the eShop, so it looks like today isn’t the day after all. Maybe next week?

It isn’t mentioned anywhere in Nintendo’s newest digital download report, but Mega Man Zero is apparently releasing on the North American Wii U Virtual Console today. Nintendo’s website has the game listed for launch on December 11 with a $7.99 price point. Once the eShop updates, we should be able to confirm this.
