During the recently concluded livestream event, it was announced that Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, 2 brand-new mainline games, will be coming later this year.

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Details

The hugely successful Legends Arceus will definitely be an influence on the game, as it is revealed that these latest titles will be open-world adventure games, so it would be interesting to see how these new games will use or even update the formula.

Game Freak will take the reigns once again as a new region and 3 new starters have been revealed based on the trailer – Sprigatito, Fuecoco, and Quaxly.

Other than this, no other details were revealed, so we’ll have to wait for more announcements to find out more about these upcoming titles.
