New Pokemon Snap Announced for Switch; Developed by Bandai Namco

The Pokemon Company has announced a new Pokemon Snap title during a Pokemon Presents live stream today.

The trailer, which you can watch down below, shows off new Pokemon from every region in glorious HD visuals with stunning environments. The title isn’t “Pokemon Snap 2” but instead is a brand-new title that’s inspired by the N64 game, titled “New Pokemon Snap.”

Also, here’s a description of the game from the Switch eShop listing:

“Travel to unknown islands with beautiful scenery like lush jungles and sandy beaches. The Pokémon pictures you take there will be used to build your very own Pokémon Photodex!

Photograph lively wild Pokémon in their natural habitats as you research and explore unknown islands. Journey through a variety of environments such as beaches and jungles to capture previously-unseen Pokémon behaviors. The photos you take can also be used to fill out your very own Pokémon Photodex!“

New Pokemon Snap is being developed by Bandai Namco and The Pokemon Company promises that more info on the game will be coming soon.
