No limited edition of Octopath Traveler for Japan

I have no idea what's going on here. This is like opposite day here. While Octopath Traveler is getting limited editions in both Europe and North America, Square-Enix has said that no such edition is heading to Japan. All the company would say is that other merch and campaigns for the title will be available in Japan. Details on those goodies will come at a later date.
