Pokémon Sleep is real, and folks are excited to start tracking their sleep with the help of their favorite Pokémon when the game releases on mobile devices.
The aim of the game is to make people excited to wake up in the morning, according to The Pokémon Company.
The goal of the app is to “offer a fun and enriching experience to trainers by having a player’s time spent sleeping—and the time they wake up—affect the gameplay,” according to a press release. App users will join Professor Neroli, who studies different sleep styles in Pokémon. Players will aid him in learning more about these Pokémon while they sleep.
The Pokémon Go Plus+ accessory can aid players in their sleeping adventures and also has functionality for Pokémon Go since its release on July 14.
When players are ready for bed, they can press the button to set up their sleep tracker and press it again when they wake up to track the sleep they have during the night.
When does Pokémon Sleep come out?
Pokémon Sleep has released on Android and iOS devices located in New Zealand on July 16. It has yet to become available in other parts of the world, however.
It’s still unclear when the title will launch in other regions, as the developer didn’t reveal a specific date yet. The game should roll out on live servers in North America, Europe, and other regions over the next few weeks or months.
Usually, we don’t have to wait too long before seeing worldwide releases with Niantic games, so players from other regions can expect to test it out soon.
Once the game launches, players will be able to track their sleep with the help of some Pokémon and will be able to discover new sleep styles with the help of Professor Neroli.
