What is the project status right now?

In development. There is no announced release date, download, platform, price, or system requirements as of 2026-10-25.

The 2026-10-23 English trailer (~3m33s; ~155k views at capture) labels the build IN DEVELOPMENT and describes a nonprofit fan project remaking 1999 Digimon World in Unity. That matches the YouTube description text: “The project is in development.”

This is an unofficial fan wiki—not the project team. We mirror public materials only.

What should you watch for next?

Reasonable future signals (none confirmed yet):

Release window or demo statement on YouTube or Discord
Platform naming (trailer currently silent; Save files (PC) is only a switch label)
Download or store page linked from official channels—not repost blogs
Patch notes on evolution, care, or save systems once a playable build exists

Until then, use release date & download for FAQ-style answers and what is Definitive Edition? for scope.

How does this relate to other remakes?

Digimon World Forge is a different Godot remake with its own October 2026 “coming soon” trailer—see fan remakes compared. PS1 raising rules documented here for context: evolution, care mistakes.

What this wiki will not claim

We do not host builds, Discord bots, or “official” badges. Metrics such as YouTube view counts are snapshots with a dated capture—not live counters. Gameplay mechanics for Definitive Edition stay Not announced until the project or a verifiable demo proves them; until then, PS1 guides remain labeled as 1999 rules with disclaimers at the top.

If you spot a public change (new trailer, description edit with download link, dated roadmap post), cite the URL and date in Discord or community channels—the October 23 trailer article shows the evidence standard we use before editing this log.
