When Do Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Reviews Drop?

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are one of the most anticipated games this year. The game was revealed earlier this year and has a lot of hype built up right now. It is only natural because of all the new features like co-op play that are coming to the game.

That is why many people are waiting for the review embargo to end. Players all over the world want to know if Scarlet and Violet will live up to the hype. Players want to know if it is worth it to go against every gym leader in the game. Here, we will go over when the review embargo should end for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet.

When Will The Pokemon Scarlet And Violet Review Embargo End?

At the moment, no reviews have dropped for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. Video game companies like to keep things under wraps as much as possible during the development of a game. This is to build up hype and get fans excited about the upcoming games. Pokemon Scarlet and Violet are no different.

More than likely, the review embargo will end for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet one or two days before the game's launch. That means interested buyers should look out for the reviews to drop either Wednesday or Thursday before the November 18th launch day. It is unlikely that the reviews will drop on the day of the game's release because it does not give players enough time to evaluate whether they should buy the game or not.

Will The Pokemon Scarlet And Violet Reviews Be Positive?

Fans are hopeful that Pokemon Scarlet and Violet review scores will be high, but will it happen? The truth of the matter is that most Pokemon games do well when they are reviewed by the media.

Pokemon is one of the most popular franchises in the world and people would be hard-pressed to find a Pokemon game that was reviewed badly. Recently though, Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl had middling reviews. But before that, Pokemon Legends: Arceus had raving reviews for trying something new.

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet will likely be reviewed well by the press on the internet. Many fans seem excited about the game and these newest additions to the Pokemon series have a lot of new features. Usually, that is a formula for a good game.
