Pokemon Legends: Arceus was the best game we’ve seen from the Pokemon franchise in well over a decade, so naturally, there’s every reason to be keenly anticipating a direct follow-up. The recent announcement of Pokemon Legends: Z-A has stirred up plenty of excitement in the series’ fanbase, and even though the trailer itself was brief and didn’t show any gameplay whatsoever, it’s easy to understand why.
Not only can a sequel build on the first Pokemon Legends game’s excellent foundations in key ways, based on its trailer, it’s also looking like it’s going to bring in plenty of its own intriguing ideas (like being set entirely within one city), while the prospect of a game that finally dives deeper into the Kalos region’s fascinating lore is also an intriguing one. Here, we talk about all of that and more.
