What Happened

What we've found out so far

There's still no official confirmation, but here's what we've been able to verify so far:

Where did the information come from?

The news first appeared in the Japanese press, on 4Gamer.net, in Japanese. The source matters: a press release from the company itself doesn’t carry the same weight as a third-party news report, and we don’t treat the two as if they were the same thing.

Why Does This Matter?

A date has already been set, which is usually a sign that the project is on track. Deadlines announced well in advance sometimes slip, so treat the date as a goal, not a promise.

This topic has come up five times here already—it’s an ongoing story, not an isolated incident. Links to previous posts are at the bottom of the page.

What We Still Need to Know

So far, none of the sources we’ve consulted have provided details on which platforms the game will be released on, its price and release date for Brazil, or official confirmation of who is producing it. We’d rather leave these gaps as they are than make guesses: when the information becomes available, we’ll post it here.
