Previously, Bandai Namco opened a questionnaire for Digimon games in preparation for the upcoming event. This questionnaire helped Bandai Namco gauge feedback for the Digimon Con program and future Digimon game projects. Beyond general questions, Bandai Namco asks about Digimon games that you’ve played, favorite Digimon, favorite moments from past Digimon games, and much more. Some of the answers to the written response questions may be introduced in the live program as well. The survey also asks about the type of genre that fans would like to see for a new Digimon game.
The latest installment in the Digimon franchise is the Digimon Adventure 02 The Beginning film, which premiered on November 8, 2023 in US theaters. The film is set in February 2012, shortly after the events of the Digimon Adventure tri. anime and the Digimon Adventure: Last Evolution Kizuna anime film. Protagonist Daisuke Motomiya and friends return from the original Digimon Adventure 02 anime.
