Pokémon Brilliant Diamond, Pokémon Shining Pearl, and Pokémon Legends: Arceus have all had their release dates announced.

Nintendo and The Pokémon Company have confirmed that Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl will release for the Nintendo Switch on November 19th, 2021.  Pokémon Legends: Arceus will then release on January 28th, 2022.

Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl are remakes of Diamond and Pearl from 2006 for the Nintendo DS.

 

These are faithful remakes of the Pokémon Diamond version and Pokémon Pearl version games which were released for the Nintendo DS system in Japan 15 years ago,” Pokémon Company COO Takato Utsunomiya said when they were announced February this year.

Pokémon Legends: Arceus seems like it will be an open-world inspired by the likes of Breath of the Wild, and will seemingly be kind of a prequel to the Sinnoh region.

 

The story of Pokémon Legends: Arceus will also tell the story of the god-like Arceus Pokémon.
