Report: Third Version Of Pokémon Sun And Moon Coming To Nintendo Switch

A third version of Pokémon Sun and Moon, code-named Pokémon Stars, will come to Nintendo Switch in late 2017, according to a new report.

The folks at Eurogamer, who correctly reported concrete details of Nintendo’s next console well before it was announced, say that this will be a third version of the same base game, like Pokémon Yellow was for Red and Blue. We’ve heard the same things separately from our own sources. Eurogamer adds that this Pokémon Stars will use better quality assets than the 3DS versions, as the Nintendo Switch can output at a significantly higher resolutions.

Pokémon Sun and Moon both launch for 3DS today.
