As someone else mentioned, this is NOT the Japanese edition, but the Asian edition - which usually includes Chinese and English. This in no way guarantees that the Japanese one will have English, though it is possible.
Even then, it’s important to remember that sometimes these editions come with a simple direct and UNEDITED translation - just a simple pass of the text into English, while the American/European version will be completely re-edited and rewritten, as we’ve seen before in the Japanese version of Fire Emblem (which includes non-edited English).
All in all, this piece of news is doing quite a bit of disservice to uninformed readers unless they have some privileged information beyond the Play-Asia listing.
