Private Division wanted to work with us from the beginning of the development of this title. Working with Private Division, with its proven track record and global expertise, gives us the confidence to create a new action-adventure game. I am looking forward to it,' he commented.

Michael Worosz, Chief Strategy Officer at Take-Two Interactive and Head of Private Division, said, 'It's hard to find a studio that has released more iconic hits than Game Freak over the past 30+ years. We are ready to help GAME FREAK unlock its potential and are honored to be the publisher joining hands with this exceptionally talented and proven team to bring dynamic new IP to the market. I will.”
