Is A Detective Pikachu Announcement Imminent?

Quick, we need some coffee!
By Todd BlackOctober 1, 2024
Detective Pikachu, Ace Attorney

You might not realize it, but it’s almost been a year since Detective Pikachu Returns debuted on the Nintendo Switch. While it may not have been the biggest game coming out that year for the console, as other titles had more hype, it was still a game that filled a certain “niche” within the Pokemon community. That brings us to Twitter, where a post from the official Poke Times handle revealed that they “may have some exciting news” coming our way when October 4th hits. You can check out the tweet below:

10月1日は #コーヒーの日 ☕️

コーヒーといえば……
コーヒーが大好きな #名探偵ピカチュウ 🕵️⚡️

『帰ってきた 名探偵ピカチュウ』発売から1周年の10月4日、#ポケモン情報局 から素敵なお知らせがあるかも……⁉️ pic.twitter.com/JlLHVbMTMH

So, what exactly does this mean? It’s honestly hard to say, as it could mean anything. It could mean that there’s a new Detective Pikachu game coming, or it could be a DLC announcement, or maybe something for the movie franchise…or it could just be a new animated short. Either way, if you’re a fan of this coffee drinking Pikachu, you’ll want to keep your eyes peeled.
