Written by SOURCE on May 29, 2019
It looks like you will now not only be able to catch Pokémon while you walk but also while you’re fast asleep.
The Pokémon Company has announced a new app titled Pokémon Sleep. The game, which is being developed by Select Button, was announced at a press conference in Tokyo, Japan and is set to drop sometime in 2020 for mobile devices. Though there currently aren’t too many details about the upcoming sleeping game, it will be available on both Android and iOS devices.
“The concept of this game is for players to look forward to waking up every morning,” Tsunekazu Ishihara, president and CEO of the Pokémon Company, said. The new game aims to “turn sleeping into entertainment.” Also, it’s important to note that multiple “Snorlax were consulted on this, in case you were wondering.” Ishihara also said that the new app “utilizes info, like time spent sleeping or what time the player wakes up, to create a new type of gameplay.”
