As many of you know, developer Game Freak has been releasing Pokémon games for ages, and they vaguely share the same mechanical and structural formula. Recently, though, Nintendo has seen great success in shaking up their series, like with The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, and a new rumour suggests that the same may happen to Game Freak's next title.
These rumours have been collected from several sources by Easy Allies, and they specifically refer to the alleged change as a "disruptive" one, potentially meaning something radically different.
"Game Freak was very nervous about doing any kind of radical departure for Pokemon, they sell so well why would you mess with that? Apparently, Breath of the Wild's reception and the reaction to Mario at E3 was so overwhelmingly positive that it convinced them that they need to make the next Pokemon game as disruptive as those two games were. That it's going to be as big of an innovation as those two games were," the statement in the video says.
Game Freak is currently working on a new Pokémon project for the Nintendo Switch, which is scheduled to launch next year. Would you like to see something dramatically different though?
