The era of Vocaloid ended in 2014, so the last 4 years have been a case of catching up.

CFM is doing something.

The main problem is a new engine launched and well, it took 6 months for devs to get hold of the dev kit. So that has caused projects to be delayed. Sora was released without her Attack function for example for this reason. So even CFMs been impacted by that as they wouldn't have the means to update Piapro Studio to vers.3 until earlier this year.

We don't have PowerFX or Internet, though of those two Internet is currently doing adviser roles instead to other studios, we've been doing it for a while. Thats basically why V4 was low-key for them. They introduced to the other studios a new recording method. PowerFX is out because Bil left.

If any new vocaloid is coming out it will either be around this christmas, but the real flow of releases is happening next year.
