In the video, Habu confirms that there are multiple Digimon game projects in development (the word “pipeline” is specifically used) and introduces Yokota, who is a new producer to the Digimon game series and is in charge of Digimon World: Next Order. Yokota discusses the port, as well as confirms that this release will include a lower difficulty mode (a.k.a. “Beginner Mode”) and a “Running” feature (Gematsu reported these additions in their coverage earlier this week).
Currently, Digimon World: Next Order is available for pre-order via the Bandai Namco online store. As we get closer to its release on February 22nd, 2023, it’ll be available for pre-order at various retailers as well as digitally on the Nintendo eShop.
