Update 2: Pre-orders are live on Amazon!

Update: Added in a better image. Official announcement is after the break. The package will cost $89.99.

During a panel at PAX Prime 2015, Nintendo revealed the North American special edition for Xenoblade Chronicles X.

Consumers will receive a few items with their purchase. Nintendo is including a copy of the game, an art book (over 100 pages), a digital copy of the soundtrack on a custom USB drive (10 songs), and matted art card.

Nintendo apparently said at the panel that pre-orders will be going live at some point today. When they do, we’ll be sure to let you know.

Head past the break for concept art images shown at the PAX panel.

Update: Officially confirmed.

We previously heard that Nintendo will be hosting a panel for Xenoblade Chronicles X at PAX Prime 2015 tomorrow. A reminder was sent out on the company’s Twitter account today, and it seems to reveal an interesting piece of information.

The tweet states that 8-4’s Mark MacDonald will be hosting the Xenoblade Chronicles X panel. That’s important for one big reason. Based on the message, it suggests that 8-4 is involved with the RPG’s localization.

8-4 has worked on a ton of games in the past. On the Nintendo side of things, they helped bring over Fire Emblem: Awakening, Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, and Fossil Fighters: Frontier.

Famitsu has posted a new online preview for Project X Zone 2. The screenshots show Namco x Capcom antagonist Saya, new character Sheath, Sylphie from Forgotten Worlds, and Miyuki from Ordyne.

Also shown in the screenshots are some of the different systems. Primarily, Famitsu provides information about customization points, which are awarded after players clear battles. These points can be used to upgrade character skills by up to eight levels as well as introduce entirely new moves. Project X Zone 2 also features different skills that are automatically executed when certain conditions are met, which require customization points.

This week’s Famitsu has another update on Project X Zone 2. Though we’ll have to wait a bit longer for a proper update, the magazine has posted a sneak peak of its article.

Famitsu reveals that Namco x Capcom antagonist Saya will be included in Project X Zone 2. Unsurprisingly, she’ll be featured an enemy.

Expect to hear more on Project X Zone 2 once Famitsu’s latest issue goes on sale.

In a blog update on Project X Zone 2’s Japanese site, Monolith Soft producer Koji Ishitani gives us a first look at a vehicle made by Naohiro Washio. Previously, Washio worked on Mobile Suit Gundam 00 and Gyrozetter.

Here’s what was shared on the blog (courtesy of Siliconera):

– Dr. Chizuru Urashima is the character in red
– She’s the head of the Shinra’s Equipment Division
– Chizuru pilots a new vehicle called the “Ryuki Ichi-go/Ryuki #1”
– Also known as the Dragonturtle MK. 1 in English
– This is a well-equipped transport vehicle that can travel to various worlds
– More details about it in the future
– Terrain mode and flight mode
– Ishitani has known Naohiro Washio for quite a while now, and previously talked about how it’d be nice to some day work together
– With Project X Zone 2, he felt that now that they could use some of his mecha designs, it’d be now or never
– The Dragonturtle Mk. 1 will be like a mobile base of operations where the characters will gather
– Other guest designers will be revealed in the future
