Networkgo and PocketGame have officially lifted the curtain on their latest title, Pickmon, slated to launch on the Nintendo Switch.
Drawing clear inspiration from iconic monster-collecting franchises like Pokémon and the recent hit Palworld, Pickmon positions itself as a multiplayer open-world survival crafter with a fresh take on the genre.
Although a firm release date has yet to be announced, the reveal signals Networkgo and PocketGame's ambition to leave their mark on the Nintendo Switch platform. Pickmon invites players into a sprawling world brimming with lost civilizations and unique creatures—the Pickmon themselves.
Players will explore vast biomes alongside their creature companions, tackle an epic storyline involving a mysterious shadow organization, and cooperate with in-game researchers to solve ancient puzzles and unravel the continent’s secrets. Key gameplay features help define Pickmon's identity.
For those who enjoy creature collection, specialized cards allow players to capture and befriend a variety of Pickmon, forging powerful bonds as they progress.
The adventure encompasses traversing diverse environments, from lush grasslands and dense jungles to frigid tundras and blazing volcanic ranges, with each biome offering challenges that require strategic use of Pickmon abilities. In a rewritten statement from the announcement, the developers emphasized the robust range of activities awaiting players: battling enemies, building bases, and developing farms to sustain their teams in the wild.
Embracing modern crafting game sensibilities, Pickmon also includes base building and the automation of resources through factory construction, enabling efficient production of gear and weaponry.
Survival mechanics are front and center as players cultivate farms to secure vital food supplies while exploring and fighting together in online multiplayer co-op. A trailer released alongside the reveal showcases Pickmon’s vibrant world and varied gameplay.
The visual presentation underlines Networkgo and PocketGame’s intent to blend familiar monster-collecting and survival gameplay with an industrial automation twist, aiming to satisfy longtime Nintendo Switch fans and newcomers alike. While specific launch timing for Pickmon remains under wraps, anticipation is building thanks to its engaging premise and the track record of both developers in creative game design.
Pickmon is expected to be available through the Nintendo eShop, with more details likely to follow in upcoming Nintendo Direct presentations.
Stay tuned for further updates as Networkgo and PocketGame prepare to bring this ambitious adventure to the Nintendo Switch’s rapidly expanding game library.
