At Least 6 Diverse Courses
The original Pokemon Snap on the Nintendo 64 had a total of seven different courses (technically, it was six main courses and one special course). Back then, we were able to visit Beach, Tunnel, Volcano, River, Cave, Valley, and Rainbow Cloud.
Right now, there are also six confirmed courses in New Pokemon Snap. This game will take us to Beach (perhaps a throwback to the first game?), Ocean, Desert, Forest, Plains, and Jungle. Additionally, we see a special glowing area that might be a special seventh course.
A few of these sound totally unlike any of the areas we visited in the first game, especially Ocean and Desert, though the courses don’t seem to be quite as diverse in terms of different types of Pokemon we’ll encounter. It seems like we’ll be seeing a lot of grass, water, and ground type Pokemon as of right now.
We’re hoping that there are at least a few more courses to be revealed with more variety of environments where Pokemon like fire, electric, or dragon types might live.
