If you are interested in testing Pokémon Unite, a spinoff with gameplay similar to League of Legends, you may be in luck. Today, the Pokémon Company announced that it will conduct a regional beta test for Pokémon Unite in Canada next month. The beta test will be exclusive to Android users, and registration is available on the Google Play Store.
Initially announced at its Pokémon Presents presentation last June, Pokémon Unite it is a free-to-play MOBA. The game is being developed by TiMi Studios, a Tencent subsidiary, best known for creating Call of Duty: Mobile and Honor of kings.
Similar to other games in the genre, such as League of Legends, Pokémon Unite puts two teams of five players together with the ultimate goal of taking control over various points on the map.
This year is great for Pokémon while the series celebrates its 25th anniversary. Nintendo has big plans to celebrate the milestone of one of its most popular franchises in creative ways, from obscure partnerships to a string of Pokémon Snap, which will arrive on April 30 for the Nintendo Switch.
