The Pokémon Company announced plans to host a special virtual concert with American rapper and songwriter Post Malone.
The show will take place at 7 pm ET on February 27 – also known as Pokémon Day, thanks to the launch of the original Pokémon Red and Green games that occurred in that day in 1996. The trailer above causes a virtual version of Post Malone, presumably showing how it will look during the show.
“Held on Saturday, February 27 – better known as Pokémon Day – the event will be an online party not only for Pokémon fans, but for all music fans worldwide. It will also serve as a launch activation for the franchise one year P25 Music program. Pokémon Company International joined Universal Music Group to bring this concert to life and more musical surprises throughout 2021 as part of the P25 Music. “
Pokémon’s 25th anniversary plans are set to include the “biggest names in music”, with Katy Perry also confirmed to join forces with the biggest gaming franchise.
