Today’s Pokemon direct gave us a better look at the new Pokemon Sword and Shield gameplay alongside a release date for the game.
The two new games launch on November 15th 2019 and will sit alongside a brand new doublepack of both games with a bonus steelbook.
We also got to see some of the new Pokemon in action. Wooloo is a sheep-like Pokemon used for its wool (it’s also adorable). Gossifleur is a new flower-type Pokemon who evolves into a bulb headed form that can heal, Corviknight is a Raven who can act as a taxi and Drednaw is a tortoise style who has a huge bite.
In addition, the two new Legendary Pokémon Zacian and Zamazenta will be instrumental to the story in both games and there will be team battles to fight massive wild Pokemon where you can team up both locally and in online co-op.
November can’t come soon enough!
