After discussing the success of Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth both in Japan and overseas and how the PlayStation 4 version Digimon World: Next Order is a port of the PlayStation Vita version, Haba revealed:
After being asked to clarify his previous statement, Haba then continued:
We consider “not dampening the fans’ enthusiasm” extremely important in continuing the Digimon IP, and for that reason it is important to regularly offer content.
So, while working on a completely new Digimon Story project, I thought I could offer a new story that depicts another side of Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth called Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth: Hacker’s Memory as not to dampen the fans’ enthusiasm."
