In addition, Sentai Filmworks has announced that the film's North American release, which was also due in April, has been postponed to later in 2020. "The decision to delay the film's release impacts all film locations and screenings, including international sites... While we are disappointed by the delay, we have every intention of giving this film the theatrical release it deserves when the time is right and safety can be assured.

Sentai Filmworks also describes the story:
Dawn of the Deep Soul continues the epic adventure of plucky Riko and Reg who are joined by their new friend Nanachi. Together they descend into the Abyss' treacherous fifth layer, the Sea of Corpses, and encounter the mysterious Bondrewd, a legendary White Whistle whose shadow looms over Nanachi's troubled past. Bondrewd is ingratiatingly hospitable, but the brave adventurers know things are not always as they seem in the enigmatic Abyss...
The 13-episode television anime series based on Akihito Tsukushi's Made in Abyss manga premiered in Japan in July 2017. The franchise is getting a sequel project.
