Pokémon Legends: Arceus | GI Live

The day Pokémon fans have been anxiously awaiting is finally here. Pokémon Legends: Arceus is out on the Nintendo Switch, and we’re celebrating by playing it live on stream starting at 12 p.m. CT only on Twitch! John Carson, Alex Stadnik and all new characters from the legendary series will take you on a journey through the Hisui world.

Game Freak’s Legends series has been the biggest in a long time. But did it pay off? Brian Shea, our own reviewer seems to believe so. His review said that:

Catching as many Pokémon as you can, learning more about them, and training them to be stronger in battle are the very foundations of Game Freak’s iconic RPG series, but few titles exemplify those core concepts as powerfully as this latest outing. Pokémon Legends: Arceus tasks you with exploring a bygone era of the Sinnoh region, then known as Hisui, and gives you more ways than ever to complete your Pokédex. While some elements don’t feel like their final forms, I love where this new direction takes the Pokémon series.

We will be hopping into Alex’s current save during today’s stream and focusing on catching Pokémon and exploring the different biomes that make up Hisui. We’ll try not to give Alex story quests, as he is quite advanced in the game. You can let us know your thoughts by joining us on Twitch. We’ll kick back and have a blast ending the week.
