Compared to the original Detective Pikachu game, which was a Nintendo 3DS game, this sequel has a sharper graphical presentation thanks to it being built from the ground up for Switch. Nintendo describes the new Detective Pikachu game as a “cinematic adventure” game that stars the chatty Pokemon, who loves to crack wise and drink absurd amounts of coffee.
Like before, you’ll be able to explore Ryme City as you tackle several different cases, meet Pokemon trainers, and enlist some crime-solving help from multiple generations of Pokemon.
If mystery-solving with a Pokemon isn’t enough for you, a few more newly announced Switch games are also up for preorder right now, including Super Mario Bros. Wonder and Super Mario RPG.
