Deep Down devs need “More Time” before announcing anything new

Yoshinori Ono previously said that he aims to create an experience that lasts for multiple years with Deep Down, so now he confirms that his team needs more time with the upcoming free-to-play title before they’re ready to show anything new.

“It looks like Deep Down will take just a little longer,” he told 4gamer. “We’re thinking about showing something that looks completely different from what previously shown, although it might be a while from now.

“The ideas we have for the game is much larger now compared to when we first announced it. Rather, the ideas we had before might not have been good enough. Looking back at the previous ideas we had, we were concerned about not being able to capture an audience as we would’ve liked.

“It was decided to give it more time so that we can further enhance it.”

Deep Down is to be released on PS4 as a free-to-play MMO of sort in Japan. No words on western release yet.
