Game Freak and Private Division have announced a publishing partnership.
Game Freak, founded in 1989, is renowned for creating numerous hit titles, including the Pokémon series. Currently, they are in the process of developing a new IP called Project Bloom.
Private Division, the publishing label of Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc., has previously worked on popular titles such as Panache Digital Games' Kerbal Space Program series and Obsidian Entertainment's The Outer Worlds. We can look forward to the exciting future of Project Bloom.
In addition, concept art for Project Bloom was also unveiled. The game is described as an action-adventure genre, and from the central figure depicted in the concept art, we can see a character wearing a hat and carrying an umbrella. We are eagerly anticipating further details and the unveiling of the game's story.
