In February the company confirmed it had withdrawn from its bidding in Osaka and would instead focus on other licenses in Japan, including Yokohama[2] among others.[3] After its Macau casinos were closed that month for the COVID outbreak as well as other casinos, the company said it would return to full capacity only after guest demand had increased.[4]
