The Pokémon Company announced today that sales of its life-simulation spin-off, Pokémon: Pokopia, have surpassed 5 million units just four months after release. The company also announced that the second DLC will launch this winter, followed by the third in 2027. Stay tuned.
In Pokémon: Pokopia, players take on the role of a Ditto with customizable human appearance, able to transform into Lapras and Dragonite to expand their exploration range. They gradually expand their abilities by learning moves like "Razor Leaf" from Bulbasaur and "Water Gun" from Squirtle, while building habitats together with Pokémon.
The game is set in a post-apocalyptic world after humanity's departure, featuring a time system synchronized with real time and no daily quest restrictions. Players must plant crops and expand their homes according to weather changes, crafting furniture, farming fields, and collecting resources to reshape the terrain and create an environment suitable for Pokémon life.
The game features special forms of Pokémon, such as Lop-Eared Pikachu and Mossy Snorlax. As the game progresses, you can invite other players to help build and gradually expand the home where Pokémon gather; the multiplayer mode is completely separate from the single-player story, with players appearing in a new town where their activities do not affect single-player progress.
