We don’t post too much about Japanese demos these days, but the one for Project X Zone 2 may have some relevance overseas. After all, we did receive a couple of demos for the original game here in the west.
Bandai Namco is releasing a Project X Zone 2 demo on the Japanese eShop on October 9. It features the game’s opening stages, and for each round cleared, players will receive an “Early Play Benefit Item” for use in the retail version. We’ll probably be seeing the demo in North America and Europe closer to launch.

The most striking addition is probably Ryo Hazuki from Shenmue. Also joining the cast is Ingrid from Street Fighter Alpha 3 MAX. Finally, the screenshots confirm that Estelle from Tales of Vesperia is returning from the first game.

Takahashi on why players aren’t given access to Xenoblade Chronicles X’s Skells right away
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 9 Comments
Xenoblade Chronicles X features something known as “Skells”. These mechs allow players to take to the sky and fly across the vast world. You won’t have access to Skells right away, however. They are made available later in the game after players receiving a license.
This month’s issue of Game Informer has a few comments from Monolith Soft executive director Tetsuya Takahashi. Takahashi told the magazine why Skells aren’t handed out at the start, explaining:
“The main reason we didn’t want players to have the Skell from the beginning of the game is that we wanted them to have the opportunity to fully explore the world on foot first. The world starts to feel quiet a bit different once you have the Skell, especially once you experience different layers of the world vertically.”
Xenoblade Chronicles X still has a few months to go before it reaches the west. The overseas release is scheduled for December 4.
