Katsuhiro Harada, famed Tekken and Soul Calibur director, has talked on Twitter about interest into a sequel for Pokkén Tournament, but that it is up for Nintendo and Pokemon Co. LTD to decide for that to happen. The original Pokkén Tournament proved popular enough to be one of the first Wii U ports, with Pokkén Tournament DX on the Nintendo Switch.
Bandai Namco has had a good relationship with Nintendo, with both the continued collaboration of Super Smash. Bros, the developers for New Pokémon Snap and including Pac-Man in both Smash 4 and Ultimate. Given the recent success of Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, and some of their other collaborations with other companies, including Cadence of Hyrule (Brace Yourself Games), and Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle (Ubisoft), a sequel could very well be on the horizon in the future.
We have included the tweet down below,
We have a good relationship with Nintendo and Pokemon Co., Ltd., and POKKÉN has had a great response, so I would like to make it again.
