Private Division Announces Partnership With Game Freak For New Action Adventure Game

Publisher Private Division has announced a partnership with Pokemon developer Game Freak to publish a new game.

The game is codenamed “Project Bloom” and is described as a “brand new action adventure IP”, indicating that it will be one of Game Freak’s non-Pokemon projects. The project is currently in early development, but is expected to launch during Private Division’s parent company Take-Two’s 2026 fiscal year. Platforms for the game were not announced.

You can check out some concept art below, along with comments from Game Freak and Private Division about the partnership:

Kota Furushima, Director at Game Freak: “We’re thrilled to have the opportunity to create new IP that is bold and tonally different from our prior work. 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.”

Michael Worosz, Chief Strategy Officer, Take-Two Interactive, and Head of Private Division: “Over the past three decades, you’d be hard pressed to find a studio which has released more iconic hits than Game Freak. 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.”
