Pokemon Unite dev explains lack of scoreboard
Posted on 2 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Mobile, News, Switch eShop | 0 comments
If you’ve played Pokemon Unite, you’ve probably noticed that the game doesn’t have a scoreboard. That can make it difficult to determine who’s winning a match while it’s in progress. Once a match is over, that’s when everything gets tallied up and a winner is chosen.
It turns out that the lack of a scoreboard in Pokemon Unite was a conscious decision made by the development team. Speaking with Kotaku, producer Masaaki Hoshino explained: “The matches last 10 minutes and players have the possibility of making a comeback, so we wanted people to play without giving up to the very end.”
