Pokemon Legends: Arceus is a game that no one saw coming; it was a big surprise. No Poke Fan thought of such a game even in their wildest of dreams.
Pokemon is celebrating its 25th anniversary, so the devs at Gamefreak decided to give us an unexpected gift on such a cool event.
Ever since the announcement, Poke fans have been going crazy over the fact that they finally will be able to play a genuinely open-world Pokemon game. Those who haven’t played Pokemon a lot will not make a big deal out of this. But an open-world Pokemon game is what every fan dreams of !
Release Date
Pokemon Legends: Arceus’ release date is 28th January 2022! The game will be available to be purchased from this day onwards. Pre-orders may start in December of 2021, but no information regarding the pre-orders has been made public yet.
The game will be released after a big gap between Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shinning Pearl, the gen 4 remakes.
Latest Updates
Since the announcement, many things have been added to the lore of the game and gameplay that we know off. First of all, when the first teaser was shown to us, the game was lagging, but recent footage is smooth as butter. Also, the colors and graphics are a hundred times better!
We also know that there will be a new combat system. The Pokemon battles will take place in the open when you throw a Pokeball! The struggle looks the most accurate; no Pokemon game has shown us fighting in this way !
The game will also have new Hisuin forms; as of now, only some have been revealed. The goal in the game most likely will be to collect data on Pokemon. Pokemon are hostile in this game which means they can knock you out for real this time!
The Pokemon channel also recently dropped this weird footage; check it out here - Pokemon Hisui region footage!
