Is DECAPOLICE Ever Actually Coming Out on PS5, PS4? | Push Square
We played DECAPOLICE at the Tokyo Game Show last year and absolutely loved it, but the game was delayed until 2026 earlier today. That's not a typing error by the way: the detective title, originally due in 2024, will now skip 2025 entirely.

I just think Level 5 are way too in over their heads, they are trying to develop so many games at once with Decapolice, Professor Layton, Fantasy Life, two Inazuma Eleven games, Megaton Musashi and a new rpg that got announced today called Ghost Craft.
Just focus on one or two and get them released instead of
