Gamescom 2024: Pokémon Company to Headline, Legends Z-A Announcement Expected
Gamescom's August event boasts a star-studded lineup, with The Pokémon Company highlighted as a key attraction. This follows Nintendo's absence from the event this year, raising anticipation for major Pokémon reveals.
Pokémon Legends: Z-A Takes Center Stage?
The Pokémon Company's presence has fueled speculation, particularly regarding Pokémon Legends: Z-A. Announced on Pokémon Day, this mysterious title, set for a 2025 release, has already intrigued fans with its reveal trailer showcasing the city of Lumiose. Gamescom is expected to offer substantial updates.
More Than Just Z-A: A Look at Other Possibilities
Beyond Legends: Z-A, several other exciting possibilities exist. Fans eagerly anticipate news on the Pokémon Trading Card Game (TCG) mobile app, a potential Pokémon Black and White remake, and even whispers of a Gen 10 mainline game announcement. A new entry in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series, following 2020's Rescue Team DX, is another exciting, albeit less likely, prospect.
Immersive Experience at the Pokémon Play Lab
Gamescom 2024 will feature a Pokémon Play Lab, an interactive exhibit focusing on the Pokémon TCG, Pokémon Scarlet and Violet updates, and Pokémon Unite. This hands-on experience caters to both seasoned and new players.
Gamescom: A Must-Attend Event for Pokémon Fans
