TiMi Studio Group created Pokemon Unite, a cross between the well-known MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) genre and the popular Pokemon franchise. Pokemon fans were hyped up at first but now the game seems to be losing its players raising concerns about its future existence.
This article will look into why Pokemon Unite has lost its appeal among players and is being called a “dead game”.
Is Pokemon Unite Dead?
One major problem that stands out in Pokémon Unite is the reduced number of players. In searching for a game, players are met by a few others leading to long waits before one starts or sometimes filling with AI bots during matches.
This has made gameplay so easy because it has no competitive pressure since the users can easily score high points by killing multiple bots. It reduced competitive seriousness which brought down the number of esports events. That’s how the esports scene of the game got devastated.
Ranked matches have problems with connectivity because there are few players. Therefore, making progress becomes harder due to such difficulties in finding opponents.
Moreover, the 10-minute gameplay of Pokémon Unite may lack relevance for regular MOBA fans who love playing long matches.
