Game Freak in collaboration with WonderPlanet announced Pand Land, a free-to-play casual marine adventure RPG coming out on June 24, 2024 for mobile devices. In Pand Land players become captain of an expedition team in search of treasures in uncharted lands.
Aside from the ocean and land exploration, the game includes a variety of dungeons and combat challenges that can be tackled solo or alongside other players. Game Freak Head of Development Department 1 Masafumi Saito said that with Pand Land the developers strove to create a title that feels like a fully-fledged console game, but is easy to play in a smartphone screen.
In addition, Saito said that he would like to see players share information and treasure maps with each other and discover new elements of the game together. For that purpose, ahead of the release of the game Saito shared that he “saw a strange horse walking on two legs near the fortress that looms over the eastern sea.”
A promotional trailer for Pand Land is now available in Japanese, and you can check it out here:
