Bravely Second will be playable at the 2014 Tokyo Game Show, Square Enix announced during a live stream event held just a short while ago. New jobs and a new asterisk holder will be featured at the expo next month.

Tokyo Game Show 2014 runs between September 18 and September 21. The first two days are business days, while the latter two are reserved for the public.

The stream should start at 8 AM ET / 5 AM ET… or 10 minutes from now!

Coming alongside the game’s launch on December 18th, The Final Fantasy Explorers Ultimate Box is hitting Japanese retailers for 13 000 yen and will include the following:

  • A copy of the game with the first-print run codes (A series of quests to obtain the “Onion Knight” equipment)
  • A 3DS XL Body Original Cover featuring illustration from Yoshitaka Amano
  • A min-album with early development demo-takes and a booklet from composer Tsuyoshi Sekito’s development log
  • An Art book with more illustrations from Yoshitaka Amano, Toshiyuki Itahana & Gen Kobayashi.
  • Final Fantasy Explorers themed Multi-Pouch made from faux leather with all sorts of branding on it

Not the cheapest of limited edition bundles but do you hope this one makes it West?

Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, Persona 5, Final Fantasy XV, Kingdom Hearts III, and Super Smash Bros. for 3DS top the latest list. For the full lineup, head past the break.

Bandai Namco has confirmed that One Piece: Super Grand Battle! X will be hitting Japan on November 13. Pricing is set at 5,690 yen. You can find the game’s boxart above.
