The Japanese developer, which has partnered with Nintendo on a number of smartphone games before this, says it plans to launch a new mobile Pokemon game in the coming months.</p><p>"[We] plan to launch a new and exciting smartphone game this fiscal year based on the globally popular Pokemon franchise in partnership with The Pokemon Company," DeNA stated in its latest <a href="https://ssl4.eir-parts.net/doc/2432/ir_material3/116168/00.pdf">financial report</a>. "More details, such as information about the game and launch timing, will be announced later."
