Sorry, it skipped my radar.

Not to my knowledge. In fact, I haven't been able to find anything else besides some announcement posts on Twitter. I was hoping, back when I posted, that there woul dbe more information and/or someone would know how to get it.

Sorry.

Take care.

PS: If you try to auto-translate what little information there is, set your language to Japanese, not Chinese.
