The launch of Pokémon Legends: Arceus is just a few days away from finally happening and The Pokémon Company wanted to show why it will be one of the most important games that Nintendo Switch will receive this year. That has left us with a 13-minute gameplay walkthrough of the game’s most important features.
The adventure will take us to the Hisui region , at a time when it was not usual for humans and Pokémon to live in harmony and which later ended up becoming the Sinnoh region. All of it is full of different areas with their own Pokémon and materials that we must collect.
These objects will be necessary to make items such as Poké Balls, potions, incense and much more that will help us to capture the wild Pokémon that we find , which will vary depending on the time of day and the weather. In addition, the method to capture them will not be exactly the same as what we are used to seeing in the series, as the video reflects at various times.
As was announced a long time ago, Hisui will be divided into zones that we will have to investigate to complete missions and catalog the Pokémon in the first Pokédex of the region. To travel from one place to another we will have the help of special Pokémon such as Wyrdeer, Braviary or Basculegion, essential to move faster on land, air and water, respectively.
Beyond all this, we can also take a look at the main cities and their shops , such as the tailor shop to modify the outfit of our character, as well as the hairdresser in case we want to change his hairstyle. Even so, it will be in these places where we will be entrusted with missions and tasks that will serve to obtain objects, money and to progress in the main story.
And of course there will be times when you have to fight against wild Pokémon , among which there will be some normal ones and others more powerful like the Alpha Pokémon and the Lord Pokémon. Of course, facing the latter will not be easy, so the gameplay recommends us to always go with a good team and arsenal of objects to get ahead.
Be that as it may, if all this leaves you wanting more, you’ll be glad to know that there’s nothing left for Pokémon Legends: Arceus to go on sale , which is expected to arrive on January 28 exclusively for Nintendo Switch.
