The 2CD/1DVD set is described as a "Deluxe Edition" at Amazon, but there are no other versions listed. At least not yet.

I'll get it because I love the band, but this continues a strange way of doing business as Frontiers keep issuing Asia live CD/DVDs from the original lineup reunion era and do so AFTER the next studio album has already come out, thus making this one especially odd as Gravitas saw Howe replaced by Sam Coulson.

Asia have confirmed the launch of a live set recorded in the US in 2012, before Steve Howe bowed out of the band.

And they’ve released a clip in which they perform their track Face On The Bridge.

Axis XXX Live In San Francisco MMXII will be available in DVD/2CD and Blu-ray editions on July 3, after its original broadcast by AXS TV in the States.

Frontman John Wetton says: “It’s a journey through Asia’s history, from Alpha to Omega and more, in the beautiful setting of the Regency Ballroom, San Francisco, California.

“Much newer material is aired, plus the band's vintage hit songs, performed by all four original members of Asia. It’s an unmissable treat for any fan, new or old.”

Frontiers Music add: “This is a historical document of where the band was at the time – a snapshot of their musicianship, camaraderie and passion.

“This is one of the very last shows featuring the original lineup of Geoff Downes, Steve Howe, Carl Palmer and John Wetton, in your face and for your viewing pleasure.”

Guitarist Howe left Asia two months after Axis XXX was filmed to focus on Yes and solo work. He was replaced by Sam Coulson, who debuted on 14th album Gravitas.
