The next main installment in the Pokémon series, Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet will launch on the Nintendo Switch later this year, the Pokémon Company has announced.
The announcement of Scarlet and Violet was made yesterday during a special Pokémon Presents video presentation streamed online to fans around the world on Pokémon Day. According to The Pokemon Company and developer Game Freak, the new game will feature a seamless open-world where towns with no borders will blend seamlessly into the wild. Aside from Pokémon on the ground, players will encounter Pokémon in the sea, skies, and on the streets.
