Detective Pikachu Returns in October

 Mere weeks after the successful premiere of the Detective Pikachu film back in 2019, Nintendo announced that a new video game entry was in the works for the Switch. The console manufacturer has been radio silent on this project ever since – until now. Re-revealed during the recent Nintendo Direct, Detective Pikachu Returns this October.

Years after its original announcement, Detective Pikachu Returns has been officially shown off, with Nintendo describing the game as follows:

“Solve mysteries with the personality-packed Detective Pikachu! Unravel a series of mysteries across Ryme City with a tough-talking, coffee-loving Pikachu who calls himself a great detective. This Pikachu may have a self-assured attitude and talk like a middle-aged man, but he somehow manages to keep his lovable charm. Together with his partner Tim Goodman, this great detective duo cracks several cases with the help of the many Pokemon and people who live in Ryme City.”

It continues, “Investigate Ryme City, where Pokemon and people live side by side. Search for clues in Ryme City, where Pokemon and humans coexist in harmony. With the help of many other Pokemon, Tim and his talkative Pikachu partner work together to solve a series of mysterious incidents in this cinematic adventure game.”

The contrast of Detective Pikachu’s voice compared to his appearance is once again present, leading to what appears to be a somewhat comedic adventure. Hopefully the game resonates with fans of Pokemon and the Detective Pikachu film alike when Detective Pikachu Returns launches on the 6th of October.
