Pokémon-Legenden: Arceus wird eigentlich kein Open-World-Spiel sein

When Pokémon-Legenden: Arceus was originally revealed it was described and compared quite a lot to open-world games such as The Legend of Zelda: Atem der Wildnis. While the PR and early footage of the game certainly gave the impression of an open-world environment that you’d be able to walk from one location to the next, it seems this won’t entirely be the case.

The Pokémon Company has shared a statement with Kotaku, which seems to clarify it will be more like titles such as Aufstieg der Monsterjäger. While it didn’t specifically reference that game, it explains how you as the trainer will set out from the village to “various open areas” of the Hisui region to complete tasks. Hier ist die vollständige Erklärung:

“In Pokémon-Legenden: Arceus, Jubilife Village will serve as the base for surveying missions. After receiving an assignment or a request and preparing for their next excursion, players will set out from the village to study one of the various open areas of the Hisui region. After they finish the survey work, players will need to return once more to prepare for their next task. We look forward to sharing more information about exploring the Hisui region soon.”

So, Los geht's – it’s not the kind of open-world title, some might have been thinking of, or comparing it to. This new entry in the series will arrive on Switch on 28th January next year. Zuletzt, we got a look at the new evolution of Scyther.
