Despite Pocketpair’s survival sensation still absent from PlayStation, speculation has been rampant in recent days suggesting that may change swiftly, thanks to a PS5 version of the title spotted on a list of games set to appear at Tokyo Game Show next week, as reported by Japan’s CESA.
Since then, however, the CESA has updated its records. A discrepancy has been reported by a ResetEra user regarding an allegedly unannounced PS5 model, which is no longer listed in the previously circulated inventory. The title drifted significantly away from the record just days after its initial discovery last week.
Despite uncertainty surrounding whether the sport’s listing on PS5 is an error or reflects a genuine plan for its release, the itemizing’s elimination raises more questions about its future – will it continue to come to the platform or remain in limbo? As Pocketpair has already hinted at a potential expansion onto PlayStation, it’s not far-fetched to assume that this move could become a reality in the near future?
Nintendo and The Pokémon Company have taken legal action against Pocketpair, alleging patent infringement. In response, Pocketpair has pledged to support independent developers in pursuing innovative ideas, while the full details can be found through this link.
