Pokemon Snap on Switch is 6.8 GB, will have some form of online play

Due on April 30

We recently got an actual release date for New Pokémon Snap, and I couldn’t be happier that it’s actually on the horizon. The original game still absolutely hits, so I hope this new iteration delivers even a fraction of that enjoyable fun.

In the meantime, we can look to the future as Nintendo has revealed several details about this upcoming version. As expected, it will be a full $ 59.99 release, but we now know it clocks in at 6.8 GB in size. Here’s the curious part, though: the list also mentions that it will have some sort of “online play” as well as support for cloud storage.

Will it be in the form of innocent ‘upload and like’ photos, maybe? Like some kind of pseudo-social network? Or will it contain a legitimate online gaming component? Only time will tell, but we know there will be a lot of Pokémon news coming this year in honor of the 25th anniversary.
