Core RPG Pokemon title confirmed for Nintendo Switch

THANK ARCEUS, FINALLY

As if the heavens have finally opened and Arceus has answered our prayers, The Pokemon Company’s Tsunekazu Ishiara has confirmed that they are making a “Core RPG Pokemon title” for the Nintendo Switch. No news of a release date just yet, but the reveal from the Nintendo E3 stream mentions “next year”, which is 2018.

This is a confirmation of the recent job listing for a “Globally popular RPG” from Game Freak, the developers of Pokemon. The job listings are for until May 2018 so take that as a clue of the release window for this new title.
