After Bandai Namco Entertainment America announced on Wednesday that Digimon World: Next Order would be coming to North America as a digital-only title for PlayStation 4 in early 2017, they sent out a correction notice yesterday. In their update, they said Next Order would now be coming to PS4 through retail and digital stores, and a PlayStation Vita version would be released digitally.
Shortly after the original correction notice, they sent out another correction notice, stating that Digimon World: Next Order would be released in early 2017 in North America as a PS4-exclusive through retail and digital stores. Here’s their full statement on the matter:
