The world’s first permanent outdoor theme park named PokePark Kanto is all set to open in Japan next year.
The new development will offer fans and families an intriguing experience to step directly into the fictional world of the pocket monsters.
However, the exciting news has been confirmed that PokePark Kanto, which spans approximately 26,000sqm of woodland and solid grounds, will operate within Yomiuriland, an amusement park in the Tama hills west of central Tokyo.
The company has started releasing promotional content earlier this month, including a freehand map and a short trailer showing intriguing glimpses of the themed landscape.
Visitors will get a chance to enter through a “Pokémon Research Lab” which serves as a doorway to the park’s two sections: Pokémon Forest and Sedge Town.
The park will be sectioned into two main zones: The Pokémon Forest- a woodland trail with more than 600 Pokémon placed in the landscape and Sedge Town which will feature live performances and intriguing themed attractions.
It also features Pokémon Centre, a series of vitality forums, and character appearances to captivate the attention of the audience.
Pokepark kanto demonstrated a successful fusion of the digital Pokémon world with the real-world Japanese landscape, creating an iconic landmark destination for trainers globally.
Additionally, this is not the first attempt but marks the permanent one, as temporary PokeParks were previously installed for a shorter time in Nagoya and Taiwan in 2005 and 2006 respectively.
In essence, it presents a successful fusion of the digital and real world, creating an essential stop for visitors worldwide.
