Pokémon Legends Arceus Provides Pre-Launch Tease

The Pokémon Company and Nintendo released a couple of new videos ahead of Pokémon Legends: Arceus‘s release this week. The first video shows many of the Pokémon to be found in the Hisui region and teases the special Hisuian evolutions of the game’s starter Pokémon. The second video is a further six-minute overview of the game.

Pokémon Legends: Arceus offers a new approach for the series with its open, full-3D world. The game sees players venturing out to help create the region’s first Pokédex in Hisui, the past name of Pokémon Diamond and Pearl’s Sinnoh region. Pokémon Legends: Arceus will release for Nintendo Switch on January 28, 2022.
