Pokémon Pokopia Opens Shared Islands With Four-Player Limit

Pokémon Pokopia will use a Koei Tecmo–designed “cloud island” system that lets players access a shared island even if the owner isn’t online, enabling collaborative building without a live host. However, only four players can be on the island at once, so larger groups must queue. The game also introduces Peakychu, a ghostly Pikachu form, signaling a darker tone ahead. Pokopia is set to launch on Switch 2 on March 5.
