Pokemon is alive and kicking, even though the world still struggles with the pandemic. Earlier this year Pokemon GO scored $5 billion in lifetime revenue, and developer Niantic shared its plans to 3D-map the whole world.
It seems that the world is still hungry for Pokemon, as the Pokemon Company has announced a partnership with Universal Studios Japan aiming to create a groundbreaking Pokemon experience inside the theme park next year.
The Pokemon Company is partially owned by the Japanese game giant Nintendo, and there are tons of Nintendo-related attractions in the theme park, so it’s no surprise that Pokemon will be joining the party.
Details about the project are scarce at the moment, with both parties committing to a “long-term strategic alliance and multiple development projects already underway.” Whatever they built over there in Japan, you should expect lots of crazy AR stuff, monsters left and right, and a “world-class entertainment technology.”
