Pokemon Legends Arceus Trailer Showcases Ambitious Open World Gameplay

Pokemon Legends: Arceus is the first main installment in the Pokemon series since 2019’s Pokemon Sword and Shield, entries that heavily divided the fanbase due to its lack of series staples such as the Regional Pokedex, and visuals that were more on par with the Nintendo 3DS entries than what many expected from the first major Nintendo Switch title. Following this, it seems that Game Freak took fans’ criticisms to heart, as Pokemon Legends: Arceus seems to be the biggest leap forward for the series since 2013’s Pokemon X and Y, which was the first 3D title in the series....
