Will Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl have special editions and pre-order bonuses?
There’s no news yet on whether the Diamond and Pearl remakes will include special or limited edition versions of the game. We wouldn’t be surprised if Nintendo announced Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl pre-order bonuses closer to the release date. Pokémon Snap had region-specific pre-order bonuses such as stickers and posters, so it wouldn’t be unusual to see some Nintendo-licensed Pokémon memorabilia get included with the games.
Who’s developing Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl?
Tradition is being broken as Game Freak will not be developing Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, as they’re busy working on Pokémon Arceus Legends. Instead, that responsibility is now with the Japanese studio, ILCA, who developed Pokémon Home.
You don’t have anything to worry about, though. Even if you don’t recognise the name, ILCA is a support studio that’s worked on some great titles including Dragon Quest XI and Nier Automata. Junichi Masada, Game Freak’s managing director, will oversee the development of Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl as director alongside ILCA’s Yuichi Ueda.
