We're not quite sure what's happening with Deep Down. The PlayStation 4 exclusive was originally announced a couple of years back, but we've heard very little since, despite publisher Capcom releasing several gameplay clips.

Earlier in the month, the Japanese company confirmed that it's still in the works, but also stated that the recently revealed Dragon's Dogma Online will be Capcom's first and only priority for now. Fortunately, in an interview with 4Gamer.net, which has been kindly translated by Siliconera, bigwig Yoshinori Ono says that "Deep Down will take just a little longer".

"It also looks like some people are starting to ask 'did the development come to a halt?' but it's nothing like that," he continued, reaffirming that the title's still being worked on. However, Ono then goes on to state that "we're thinking about showing something that looks completely different from what previously shown."

"The ideas we have for the game is much larger now compared to when we first announced it," he adds, before admitting that "the ideas we had before might not have been good enough." It's starting to sounds like the role-playing game wasn't quite up to scratch, and its development was pegged back, but still, it's natural to be curious as to how Deep Down will eventually turn out, especially given these particular comments.
