Will Pokémon GO face competition soon? The developer DeNA has announced a mobile game about Pokémon. We tell you what is known so far.
What has been announced? The information about this new Pokémon game is still very scarce. The fact is that the developer DeNA, in collaboration with The Pokémon Company, will release a new Pokémon game. This game is intended for mobile players.
So far, it is known that it is scheduled to be released by the end of the fiscal year, which ends in March 2020. Therefore, it could be expected this year.
What is known about the new Pokémon game?
This information has already been provided: The information for the game is still very minimal. It is supposed to be “new and exciting”, but further content has not yet been disclosed by the developer.
These are the developers: The company DeNA has often been associated with Nintendo. For example, they released the game “Super Mario Run” in 2016. Also for Android and iOS.
A renewed collaboration with Nintendo and now also with The Pokémon Company promises something big.
Will it be competition for Pokémon GO? The mobile game from developer Niantic is currently the most successful Pokémon game on the mobile market. The expectations for DeNA and the new game are high, so they can compete with Pokémon GO.
So far, it is also unknown what direction the announced game will take. It may not be an AR game, but rather a single-player experience that can be played from home.
Some fans speculate it could be a spin-off tied to the release of the new generation of Pokémon. The 8th generation of the monsters will debut with Pokémon Sword and Shield, coming in late 2019.
For now, we must wait until DeNA releases further information about their game.
Perhaps this game can also be connected with Pokémon GO, just as it worked with Let’s GO Eevee and Pikachu:
