Game Freak wants to get into new games besides Pokémon
And he is already preparing some very important projects
Game Freak is the legendary development team of the Pokémon games, which has been dealing almost exclusively with this franchise in recent years. However, through new statements by the director, Masao Taya , we learn that the company wants to deal with other games, besides… “the known ones”.
Taya, who is the director of Pocket Card Jockey: Ride On! , spoke to Axios and among other things said that it is very important for the studio to continue creating other games, which will not be based on Pokémon.
In fact, it seems that the complexity of the different versions of Pokémon is difficult for Game Freak, especially if they don’t have an outside team helping them.
In recent years, the resources required for game development have increased, so Development Department One is experimenting with a development style that will also work with external studios. For example, to carry the “Ride One!” on Apple Arcade, we partnered with Infiniteloop Co. and Pixyda.
So, Taya said that Game Freak wants to work on new titles as well, but didn’t reveal more.
The above statements are now made because Pocket Card Jockey: Ride On! of the Nintendo 3DS was recently released on iOS and will later arrive on Android devices.
