Tbh, they've kept the lid tight on exact numbers. But given the massive leap to an open-world format in Scarlet and Violet, you gotta imagine it was a small army. Game Freak ain't a small indie studio, after all.

The exact number hasn't been publicly disclosed, but considering it's the first open-world RPG format in the Pokemon series and the scale of the project, we're likely looking at hundreds of people. Game development teams for titles of this magnitude usually include a mix of in-house staff at Game Freak, outsourced talent for specific tasks, and support from Nintendo and The Pokémon Company. So yeah, lots!

I heard it was in the hundreds. Creating an open-world game like Pokemon Scarlet and Violet is no small feat, especially considering it's the first of its kind in the Pokémon series. Plus, there's all the new Pokémon, animations, and the massive Paldea region to build.
