Bandai Namco Ent. to release game in N. America on February 16

Bandai Namco Entertainment began streaming the Tokyo Game Show 2015 "special video" for its Project X Zone 2: Brave New World game on Thursday. The video previews the game's various characters and franchises, including recently revealed characters from Resonance of Fate, and Segata Sanshiro characters.

The video also shows the bonuses included with the game. First editions of the game will include a special Nintendo 3DS theme, and a challenge stage named "The Woman of 10 Years Ago." The game's limited edition will include an "original game sound" collection that includes over 60 musical themes from the various franchises included in the game to replace the in-game music, as well as a copy of the Valkyrie no Bōken game that includes Xiaomu as a playable character. It will also include special box art by Takuji Kawano and a "Namco X CAPCOM 10th Anniversary" 3DS theme.

Bandai Namco Entertainment also announced on Thursday that the game will ship in North America on February 16.

Similar to the first game, the sequel features characters from various Bandai Namco Entertainment, Sega, and CAPCOM franchises. Monolith Software Inc. is developing the game, which will allow players to "maneuver characters into position and perform strategic attacks using different combinations in real time."

marina will perform both the opening theme "Sekai wa Hitotsu no Budai" and the ending theme "Tsuki Akari no Curtain Call." Yūzō Koshiro composed the songs and Sōichirō Morizumi wrote the lyrics.

The strategy role-playing game will ship in Japan on November 12, and it will ship in Europe in early 2016. Bandai Namco Entertainment had previously announced that the game would ship this fall in North America, Europe, and Japan.

The first Project X Zone Nintendo 3DS simulation role-playing game featured more than 50 playable characters from 29 CAPCOM, Sega, and Namco Bandai Games franchises.
