A new trailer for Pokemon Legends: Arceus shows off a fresh glimpse of the Hisui Region.
The video is presented in an eerie found-footage format as seen in horror movies, showing off some snowy terrain surrounded by rocks and trees. You can check out the trailer below.
In the trailer, the narrator describes a Pokemon he sees by saying, "The tip of its tail is red and swaying," and, "the white fur on top of its head and around its neck is so fluffy." He also says it's not a Vulpix or a Growlithe, so it's probably a new form of an existing Pokemon, or a new Pokemon entirely. The Pokemon Twitter account is asking trainers to examine the footage and report back with their findings.
Pokemon Legends: Arceus is set to be a big departure from the standard Pokemon formula. While the game won't be open-world, it will feature a handful of open areas to explore, similar to Monster Hunter: Rise. The game is also introducing a new class of Pokemon called Noble Pokemon, as well as a revamped battle system where Pokemon's stats and other factors may allow them to use multiple moves in a row.
If this sounds like too much change, Pokemon purists can look forward to Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, which we called "the old-school Pokemon games we've been missing" in our hands-on with the remakes.
