Six years ago, Nintendo released an interesting game in the Pokemon franchise. Although the series has witnessed tons of offerings so far, this specific game was quite special as it featured the most adorable Pokemon as a detective.
Yes, we are talking about Detective Pikachu, which even saw itself getting adapted into a hit live-action movie in 2019. In the same year, Nintendo had green-lit the sequel to the first game. Due to some reasons, however, there was no update available on the project until now. Thanks to an unintentional leak from a developer himself, we now have solid intel on the next Detective Pikachu title on the Switch.
