Leaks of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet are already visible 11 days before their official release Spoiler Alert!

More than a week and a half before the game’s scheduled launch, previously unheard Pokémon Scarlet & Violent content is already beginning to leak.
Although The Pokémon Company usually keeps its games under wraps before they are released, it appears that some copies of its most recent game are now in the hands of the general public, raising the possibility of spoilers.

Around the time of writing, or nearly eight hours ago at 1 am GMT on Sunday, leaked screenshots had only begun to circulate on social media.

A few minutes later, YouTuber Austin John Plays published a “PSA” video notifying viewers that leaks had just begun to surface and cautioning them that they would probably start to proliferate on social media.

Given that many of the screenshots that have leaked feature dialogue in Spanish, the primary source at the moment appears to be from a Spanish-speaking nation. These screens include a number of Pokémon that have not yet been publicly revealed.

A social media user compiled screenshots and posted them for a few hours before deleting them, urging their followers to preserve and repost the photographs.

The photographs may soon be extensively shared on social media, which could make it difficult to avoid them.

With only 11 days until the game’s release, Nintendo and The Pokémon Company will be worried that the game already seems to have found its way into some players’ hands. For the time being, the leaks seem to be limited to one or two sources.

It’s not the first time in recent years that the Pokemon series has been the victim of a high-profile leak: When Pokémon Legends: Arceus was released in January, dozens of players were already streaming the game on Twitch a week before the official release date thanks to a build of the game shared on piracy sites.

Twitch users also began live streaming beta versions of Pokémon Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl in November 2021, up to ten days before their publication.

In February 2020, Nintendo publicly severed connections with a Portuguese website after it was discovered that it was responsible for some pre-release Pokémon Sword and Shield leaks. This was the most well-known Pokémon leak incident to date.

While Sony may not classify Gran Turismo 7 as a live-service game, the team at Polyphony Digital certainly approaches it with a similar mindset. The game continues to impress with every new update, and although v1.44 may be smaller compared to previous versions, it still manages to enhance the already extensive content of this simulation racer.

The update, now available worldwide, introduces three new cars: the Audi R8 Coupé V10 Plus ’16, the Lamborghini Urus ’18, and the Toyota GT-One (TS020) ’99. Furthermore, it introduces three fresh events to World Circuits, an extra menu to conquer in the GT Café single-player campaign, and a collection of livery stickers inspired by the upcoming Highspeed Étoile anime, set to debut next week in Japan.

If you’re not already acquainted with Highspeed Étoile, you can watch a trailer right here. “Sony has announced that a collection of 26 stickers, consisting of 8 title logos and 18 main character stickers, will be made available for a limited time,” stated Sony on the PS Blog. In addition, Fukushima will be included as a backdrop in the title’s beloved photography mode.

This author has consistently praised the realistic portrayal of tennis in TopSpin 4. After more than a decade, we are thrilled to witness the release of TopSpin 2K25, which expands upon the success of its renowned predecessor. This gameplay video provides a comprehensive overview of the features discussed in our recent preview while also incorporating relevant footage to enhance understanding.

The series’ swing system sets it apart from arcade-style games like Virtua Tennis, as it requires players to charge up their shots in a different way. In order to succeed, timing is crucial, and fortunately, a new meter above your player will assist you in achieving that. Surfaces have their own distinct characteristics, such as clay, where you’ll experience a noticeable amount of sliding.

The game ensures that every player has a distinct set of animations, adding a touch of individuality to each competitor. The courts, found in all Grand Slams, possess a remarkable amount of individuality and charm. It is mentioned in the video that with each in-game season, players can expect a plethora of additional content, such as animation packs. This indicates that there will be plenty to anticipate even after the game’s initial release.
