Having delivered a number of Pokemon RPGs over the course of nearly three decades, Game Freak is obviously a stalwart of the games industry, and though the developer will obviously continue to lead work on the massive franchise in the years to come, it’s been announced that it has another major new project in the works as well.

And interestingly enough, it’s being published by Take-Two Interactive-owned publishing label Private Division. The game, codenamed Project Bloom, is described as a new action-adventure IP that, according to Game Freak, will be quite different in tone from its prior works.

“We’re thrilled to have the opportunity to create new IP that is bold and tonally different from our prior work,” said Kota Furushima, director at Game Freak. “From the beginning, Private Division was the publisher we wanted to work with on our new game. Their track record and global expertise give us all the confidence to create a sweeping new action-adventure game that we can’t wait to share more about in the future.”

“Over the past three decades, you’d be hard pressed to find a studio which has released more iconic hits than Game Freak,” said Michael Worosz, head of Private Division. “We’re ready to help Game Freak unleash their potential and we’re honored to be the first Western publisher to work alongside this exceptionally talented and proven team to bring a bold new IP to market.”

Private Division confirms that Project Bloom is currently in early developments, and is expected to launch sometime in fiscal year 2026 (i.e. between April 2025 and March 2026). Concept art has also been revealed for the game to offer a glimpse of what Game Freak is building. Check it out above.

Private Division has previously announced publishing partnerships with several additional developers, including Ori developer Moon StudiosSilent Hill 2 Remake developer Bloober Team, and more.
