More information on the new PS Vita game is expected to be announced at Jump Festa on December 21 and 22.

This is one of many games in the Digimon game project announced in recent years. A PSP game, titled Digimon World Re:Digitize was released in 2012. A 3DS expanded was released in June this year.

An iOS card fight Game was announced and released in fall 2012. Lastly, in 2013, the Digimon Adventure PSP game, a complete retelling of the Digimon Adventure anime, was released. The game not only recreated every episode from the 1999 television anime series, but also the 2000 film Digimon Adventure - Bokura no War Game from director Mamoru Hosoda (The Girl Who Leapt Through Time, Summer Wars, Wolf Children). The original cast returned for the game except for Hiroko Konishi, the voice of Takeru, who was replaced by Megumi Han due to her retirement from the voice acting industry.
