Nintendo has finally given us some new gameplay for Monolith Soft’s ambitious and yet totally mysterious RPG, codenamed X.

The new gameplay was shown off towards the end of this week’s Nintendo Direct broadcast, and despite the game coming out later this year in Japan, it’s looking really solid. The battle system in X is based off the one seen in Xenoblade Chronicles, their critically acclaimed RPG that saw release on the Wii, but it’s described as being “even more polished.”

Check out the uncut gameplay below:
