The pop culture specialist, Funko, is kicking off the New Year with the launch of its first Funko Fair, a two-week long virtual event that aims to introduce fans and partners to new products expected to hit retail later this year.
Funko has already confirmed a line-up of licensing partners for the event, including Warner Bros and DC, The Pokemon Company International, NBCUniversal, Five Nights at Freddy’s and more. There will also be days designated for Disney, Marvel, and Star Wars branded products by Funko.
“Funko is always discovering new ways to surprise and delight our fans by bringing the best of pop culture directly to them,” said Brian Mariotti, chief executive officer at Funko. “Funko Fair is all about virtually showcasing the newest products that our incredible creative team has been working on for the past several months.
“We are always trying to create something that is equally exciting, or more exciting than Pokémon.”
But recent reports suggest that Little Town Hero, the most recent Game Freak launch, is likely to remain the most notable one available to play on next-gen consoles.
The latest news out this week suggests that the developer could be working on a new Pokemon game that will be launching on Nintendo Switch.
New job listings have popped up, via Dexerto, that have fans chatting that something big could be in the works for 2021.
