Pokemon Sword/Shield revealed for Game Informer’s November 2019 issue
Game Informer is featuring Pokemon Sword/Shield for its November 2019, the magazine has announced.
Here’s what fans can expect:
ans have long-requested a mainline Pokémon RPG on consoles, and after remaking the first-generation titles in last year’s Let’s Go games, Game Freak is finally giving fans their wish in Pokémon Sword and Shield. We traveled to Game Freak’s headquarters in Tokyo, Japan to get the behind-the-scenes story of these games. We spoke with the game’s director, producer, planning director, and art director, picking their brains on the direction of the series and what they hope to accomplish with the upcoming Switch titles.
In our conversations, we talked about the decision to base the Galar region on the U.K., the new Dynamax mechanic, and why it took so long to make a mainline Pokémon game on consoles. And yes, we got into why some Pokémon didn’t make the cut for Sword and Shield.
