We’ll be getting another look at Pokémon Scarlet & Violet this week

Since early 2022, Game Freak has been slowly revealing more about its next generation of Pokémon. Pokémon Scarlet & Violet are due to launch later this year, expanding on the open world gameplay introduced with Pokémon Legends: Arceus. Later this week, The Pokémon Company will be holding a stream where we should get another look at gameplay. 

Game Freak began the year by launching Pokémon Legends: Arceus for the Nintendo Switch, featuring new open world gameplay and Monster Hunter inspired missions and exploration. Swiftly after launch, the company surprised us with the announcement of Pokémon Scarlet & Violet, also due out this year. So far, we've seen the starter and main legendary Pokémon, as well as some small snippets of gameplay through trailers.

On Wednesday, the 3rd of August, at 2PM BST, a Pokémon Presents stream will go live. The show will include updates on various Pokémon apps and video games, with Pokémon Scarlet & Violet being the headliner.

Currently, Scarlet & Violet are due to launch in November 2022 for the Switch. We should get another look at gameplay and confirmation of some new and returning Pokémon.

KitGuru Says: I loved the direction Game Freak went with Arceus, so I've got high hopes for Gen 9.
