Tokyo, Japan - 4dn owner and manager Tsuneaki "Buddha" Takeda today told GotFrag that 4DN will be going inactive for an indefinite amount of time. The Japanese powerhouse, who placed 12th at CPL Summer 2005 and represented Japan at the World Cyber Games in 2004 and 2005, stated today that due to the lack of funding for the team and lack of tournaments other then WCG that they are able to attend, it is not possible for the team to carry on at this time. They hope to be back in the near future, but it looks as though professional e-Sports will be without the long time familiar faces of the Japanese for 2006.

Tsuneaki told GotFrag they will be back, maybe not as 4dN, but professional e-Sports won't be without the Japanese for to long.
