Pokémon Comaster
Today, The Pokémon Company revealed a new Pokémon game for mobile devices: Pokémon Comaster (Koma Star?), developed in collaboration with Heroz (who develop AI for chess, such as Apery). It’s game mixing strategy and board games, in which you have to collect virtual figures (with their own attributes), make a deck, and then try to defeat your opponents.
It’s a Free 2 Play game (with the usual micro-transactions), which can be played in Single Player and online. It will be released this Spring in Japan, and there’s currently no word on whether it will be released outside Japan down the line.
Here’s the concept trailer for the game:
Here’s some renders of the virtual figures:

Pokémon world
In Japan, The Pokémon Company has opened a portal dedicated to the Pokémon world, with plenty of details about it (including its technology). Unfortunately, there’s a major catch… it’s only available in Japanese right now, and we don’t know if an English version will be launched at a later date.
