Digimon Survive is being delayed, according to the game’s producer on twitter. No official announcement has been made, however, and no new release date has been given.
The game was originally supposed to launch in 2019, before being delayed to 2020. Thanks to a tweet by producer Kazumasa Habu, we know they’re currently “refocusing the game’s schedule”.
ご心配をおかけし申し訳ございません。デジモンサヴァイブは開発体制を見直し、スケジュールの仕切り直しを行っております。関係各所調整し、状況を近々ご報告させていただく予定です。楽しみにしていただいている皆様には大変恐縮ですが、今しばらくお待ちいただけますよう宜しくお願い申し上げます。

The tweet, written in reply to a concerned fan, is as follows:
We apologize for any inconvenience. Digimon Survive is reviewing its development system and repartitioning its schedule. We will make adjustments to all relevant parties and report on the situation in the near future. We apologize for the inconvenience, but thank you for your patience.
Survive is an upcoming tactical RPG for the Nintendo Switch, PS4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch. Unlike previous Digimon games, Survive has you working with the NPCs to survive after being taken to a strange new reality. It looks like it has an overall darker tone compared to previous titles.
