SUMMARY

• Nintendo's lawyers will not be happy about Game Freak's recent data leak.

• Things seems to be under control at the moment since Game Freak regained control over their data.

Game Freak has been allegedly hacked, which has resulted in a massive data leak, including the personal information of current and former employees. The leak also targeted the upcoming games, including Pokémon Legends: Z-A.

Nintendo too seems to have been dragged in the leak and it sure will leave Nintendo’s lawyers more annoyed than Sony ever was during the PS5 dev kit leak. Having said that, Game Freak and Nintendo have both witnessed a massive hit, and it will take some time before the companies stabilize again.

The recent leak concerning the Pokémon developer Game Freak has managed to unearth one of the best-kept secrets from Nintendo. According to the leak concerning the next Pokémon game, it is being speculated that we might be seeing a Switch 2 really soon.

The next-gen Pokémon games are currently being tested for upgraded Nintendo consoles, according to the leaks. This claim has broken the internet. If the same is true, then there is a high chance that the concerning console is Switch 2, which has been on people’s minds for a very long time now.

Switch 2 has been a secret ever since rumours about its potential release in 2025 surfaced on the internet. Nintendo has been silent on the matter ever since and has abstained from talking about its next console openly. There have been no official announcements about the console, and there is a high chance that the current leak brings about a shift.

Satoshi Tajiri, the CEO of Game Freak, released a statement following the recent leak to reassure the company’s employees.

Responses to individuals whose personal information has been leaked
We are contacting the affected employees individually. For those who cannot be contacted individually due to resignation or other reasons, we will notify them through this announcement and set up a contact point to respond to inquiries regarding this matter.

The matter seems to be getting under control now that Game Freak has gained back access to its site again. However, the recent attack has still managed to do a lot of damage.

The leak targeted at Game Freak also took down Nintendo by extension since hidden details about the next Switch 2 were allegedly revealed. According to the leak, the development of the upcoming Pokémon Legends: Z-A seems to have been finished.

Unseen Pokémon designs were also revealed to the general public, including the past as well as future titles. This recent leak has managed to shake the internet.

Nintendo is yet to respond regarding the Switch 2. We fail to get an official statement from the company even now, and there is a high chance that we won’t be getting the same for a long time. What do you think about it? Let us know in the comments below.
