New Pokemon Snap sends players on a photography expedition through lush, wildlife-filled environments aboard the NEO-ONE vehicle, capturing candid moments of Pokemon in their natural habitats. Each course reveals new behaviors and hidden Pokemon on repeat visits.

Players snap photos while using items to prompt reactions from creatures along the route, then rate their best shots to fill out an in-game research log. It's a relaxing, discovery-driven spin on the on-rails photography formula pioneered by the original Pokemon Snap.
