343iBot Posted August 18, 2021 Report Share Posted August 18, 2021 So far most of what we've known about Pokemon Legends: Arceus was scant details from a single event. As the January release date approaches, though, The Pokemon Company shared more details during its Pokemon Presents stream. The trailer showed off a variety of environments including a beach, forest, and snowy mountains. Exploration was a big focus of the footage, including using a Pokemon as transportation like a glider, boat, and mount. We also saw sneaking around the tall grass and a quick transition into combat. The trailer showed Pokemon turning aggressive with glowing red eyes as part of the story, making them especially dangerous. Your own Pokemon will be able to choose from strong style for extra power but slower speed, or agile style for faster attacks with less power. In a subsequent detailed talk about Arceus, the studio explained that the game revolves around the Galaxy Expedition Team. You meet up with Professor Laventon who studies Pokemon ecology, Captain Cyllene of the Survey Corps, and Commander Kamado from the expedition team. You'll go out on the expedition and make a base camp, and prepare for outings by buying or crafting items. Out in the world you'll manually throw Pokeballs at wild Pokemon to capture them. Preorders for Pokemon Legends: Arceus open on the Nintendo eShop starting today. Previously the company had announced that Arceus was set in the Sinnoh region, but it takes place long before modern Pokemon training even exists. It's also said to represent a "new approach" for Pokemon with a more action-RPG focus. The earliest trailers drew comparisons to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild due to its visual style and wide-open areas. Pokemon Legends: Arceus is coming on January 28, 2022.
