Nintendo Announces Pokemon 'Sun' and 'Moon' Games, WIll Launch This Year
Marking the 20th anniversary of the franchise.
Nintendo has unveiled the next big Pokemon games: Sun and Moon. These two releases will be coming to the Nintendo 3DS this holiday season and are the first major entries in the series since Pokemon X and Y in 2013. The titles originally leaked earlier than expected with images surfacing on the internet.
The games will be available at the same time, and in nine different languages. For the first time ever, the games will be offered in traditional and simplified Chinese. “We hope that, through Pokemon, players can overcome language barriers and interact with other players from around the world,” Tsunekazu Ishihara, CEO of The Pokemon Company.
Little details have emerged yet, but you can view a few drawings and plans in the video above. The game will also support the Pokemon Bank cloud service so you can transfer your special Pokemon from previous editions.
