Cross-play between the two companies consoles isn’t the only sign of a good relationship between Microsoft and Nintendo. Three new 2DS XL were revealed today, and one includes a very familiar face.

Aside from an Animal Crossing and Mario Kart-themed systems, a new special edition Minecraft 2DS XL will be gracing store shelves soon. According to the announcement, the 2DS XL designed after a Minecraft Creeper will be launching in Japan on August 2. There’s no word if it’ll eventually reach the states. It’s 16,980 yen price tag converts to around $153 in the US.

The special edition Minecraft 2DS XL will also come with a pre-installed download of Minecraft: New Nintendo 3DS Edition.

As you can see from one of the other images provided by Nintendo below, the casing appears to be textured so you can feel the Creeper in all of its uneven, jagged glory.
