"We live in a post-platform world. Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo are no longer treating each other like they're adversaries of the "he who must not be named" variety in their marketing material. Though console warriors are still fighting that battle in comments sections like soldiers who don't know the war has ended, , so the war is over.

Console competition has softened and games increasingly appear across platforms. Game Freak appeared in an Xbox showcase and revealed footage from its Tokyo Kanda Square office, where the studio moved to be closer to Nintendo. Office decor draws from the Kanto region, with themed rooms such as one covered in trees to evoke Viridian Forest. The showcase highlighted the team working on the upcoming action RPG Beast of Reincarnation. Footage shows both conventional developer spaces and highly themed rooms. No visible Pikachu or Poké Ball iconography appears in the clips, possibly to avoid distracting from the new game.
