Pokemon Diamond and Pearl Remakes Coming to Switch this Year
As was highly anticipated, The Pokemon Company announced remakes of Pokemon Diamond and Pearl during today's Pokemon Presents presentation. They will be called Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Pokemon Shining Pearl. They are set to be true remakes of the original games, and not part of the Let's Go series that features Pokemon GO mechanics. The pair of games will be released late this year, in celebration of Pokemon's 25th Anniversary.
As can be seen above, Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl will feature a chibi-like art style. This keeps the DS-era scale of the games while introducing a fresh new, albeit controversial, look. The remakes will be developed by ILCA under the direction of Game Freak and The Pokemon Company. Stay tuned for more information!
