Pokémon New Pokémon Snap
A new free update has been announced for New pokémon Snap, coming August 4th 01:00 UTC. This update adds 3 new areas with more Pokémon
First Day & Night version of a new area in the Florio Island Nature Park - Secret Side Path - The NEO-ONE shrinks to a tiny size when you explore this area, so the Pokémon you see will look gigantic! You can even hear their breathing and footsteps in this thrilling area, and you might spot new kinds of behavior from Pokémon you’ve seen before.
There is a River, both Day & Night, that will contain a variety of Pokémon - Mightywide River - Mightywide River is a nurturing water source that provides the whole of Belusylva Island with sustenance. You’ll be conducting research as you ride down the river, so be on the lookout for rapids as you search for Pokémon, and keep your camera ready so you don’t miss capturing them in action.
There's a new wilderness and canyon stage, both Day & Night variants - Barren Wilderness - In this area, you’ll research the badlands of Voluca Island, where dry winds from the desert blow. This area has many peculiar features, from geysers to poisonous, gas-spewing swamps. Pokémon may be hiding underground or in the rocky cliffs, so keep your eyes peeled for them while you’re on your expedition.
There are 20 new Pokémon added within this update
