New Pokémon Snap[a] is an upcoming first-personsimulation video game with rail shooter style gameplay mechanics. It is being developed by Bandai Namco Studios and planned to be published by Nintendo and The Pokémon Company for the Nintendo Switch. It is scheduled to be released on April 30, 2021. Players travel using an on-rails hovercraft and research Pokémon by photographing them. It is a sequel to the 1999 Nintendo 64 game Pokémon Snap.

Gameplay[edit]

The player photographs Pokémon in their natural habitats to build a 'Photodex', using fruit to lure them closer.

Nintendo Switch Snap

In New Pokémon Snap, the player is a Pokémon photographer[1] who visits various islands in the Lental region to help the research studies of Professor Mirror and his assistants Rita and Phil.[2][3][4] Taking photographs helps the player build a compendium called a Photodex;[5] the game features over 200 different Pokémon for the player to photograph.[6] In addition to adding photos to the Photodex, the player also helps investigate the Illumina phenomenon, where Pokémon and plants appear to have a special glow.[7]

For each research expedition, the player travels in an on-rails hovercraft, the NEO-ONE, to safely photograph Pokémon in their natural environments. These habitats include jungles, deserts and beaches,[1][2] which can be visited during daytime or at night in order to photograph different types of Pokémon.[8] Each photo the player takes is graded by Professor Mirror on a scale of one to four stars,[9][10] taking into account things like shot composition, how close the Pokémon is, and whether they are facing the camera or not.[1] Players can decide to save those photos to the Photodex, which can hold up to four photos of each Pokémon (one at each rating).[11] As players take higher-quality photos, they earn Expedition Points that go toward improving the Research Level of each area in the Lental region. Higher Research Levels will open up more levels to explore in that area.[11][12]

To get better pictures, the player is encouraged to use various tools to coax out rarely-seen Pokémon reactions on camera.[13] To lure Pokémon out, players can use a fruit called a fluffruit,[14] or play a melody that can get some Pokémon to dance.[15] They can also throw an item called an Illumina orb to cause Pokémon to glow.[16] The orbs serve to not only help the player take pictures at night,[12] but also potentially change a Pokémon's behavior. Depending on the Pokémon, the Illumina orb can help wake up sleeping creatures, or even sometimes cheer them up.[15] Players can find hidden Pokémon in the area by using their camera to scan for them.[17]

After Professor Mirror grades the player's photographs, players can retouch their photos using the Re-Snap feature.[8] This allows the player to change parameters like zoom, blur, and brightness, as well as add photographic filters, photo frames, and stickers. [17] These edited photos can be saved to a personal photo album separate from the Photodex.[8][12] Players can upload their photos online to share with other players, who in turn can help get their favorite photos be featured in-game by liking them.[16][18]

Development[edit]

Pokemon Snap

New Pokémon Snap is being developed by Bandai Namco Studios and will be published by The Pokémon Company and Nintendo.[19] Bandai Namco had previously developed the Pokémon fighting game Pokkén Tournament, in which Pokémon were depicted as part of an interconnected world, coexisting with humans. According to game director Haruki Suzaki, who directed both titles, it was this depiction of Pokémon that helped the studio earn the opportunity to work on New Pokémon Snap.[20]

It was announced during the Pokémon Presents presentation on June 17, 2020 and is planned for release on the Nintendo Switch.[21] On January 14, 2021, Nintendo announced that the game would be released on April 30 of that year.[14][22]
