It might still be in Early Access on Steam, but Temtem - the Pokémon-like MMO from Crema Games - has had a very decent start. It's managed to sell 500,000 copies in its first month and, when we tried it out for ourselves, we were left even more interested in its upcoming launch on Switch.
Now that its first month has been successfully navigated, the Temtem team has released a short-term roadmap for the game. Crema Games notes that every detail shown below is "not 100% confirmed for the game", saying, "We’re not really big fans of having public dates for everything, they add a lot of unnecessary pressure on the team and they make making changes and swapping features around a very difficult task."
With that in mind, here's what we can expect to mostly appear in the game going forward:
More details on each of the segments listed above can be found on Crema Games' website; while it all naturally applies to the current version available on PC, we'd expect to see these make their over to Switch when it launches on Nintendo's platform in the future.

Cool, I've been meaning to jump into this, just not wanting to buy it full price just yet. Especially since I'm not always online.
I wanna play this game so badly, but $40 for an alpha build is a bit steep. I'll wait until either this new content comes out and really bolsters the experience, or just wait for the full release (probably the former)
I'll be on board, when the Switch version arrives! Any mention when that might be?
Any word on if progress would carry over to Switch if I purchase it on PC first? I don’t want to waste time playing it on PC since my preference is Switch.
Almost got it as a test game for GeForce NOW over the weekend.
But I got Edge of Eternity as an Early Access game and when I got into it the content ran out 😅. And what you can play today, is 10X in better shape than how I played it.
Giving it a bit of time in early access for content to get sorted out.
The game is pretty polished and I think it has a lot of potential. Right now I don't enjoy it that much though, it's waaaay too grindy. Everything in the game is a giant grind: breeding Temtem, leveling Temtem, acquiring money.
Where GameFreak made getting into competitive battling easier and easier, these developers decided to make it as tedious and casual-unfriendly as possible.
I hope they manage to balance that a bit more in the future because right now this reeks of "time savers" aka microtransactions in the future.
I bought it because i was dissapointed with SWSH, but god is this game boring: the music is very lackluster, the monster designs arent great and it's just battle after battle with nothing great else to do
Once this is complete then i'll make a decision about checking this out.
@mariomaster96 I got Digimon cyber sleuth for the same reason.
@MaxlRoseGNR Supposedly by 2021. So excited about this game!
@Seesh nope, and I doubt they’ll discuss that until the game comes out. It’s more likely a no than a yes though. It’s best to assume it won’t have cross platform saves, I think only a couple Switch games do.
Kinda boring at the moment tbh, probably won't touch it for another year or so. I like some of the creature designs but man the lack of music variety and the constant battle after battle both get so tiring so quick.
Assuming this won't be cross play then? Catching up to stand a fair chance in the eventual tournament would be too steep a task.
Things are getting serious guys. Just checked the twitter account, and appart from all this, there are two more legendary Temtem coming, 30 creatures more, many more islands, more endgame and a Spring release in consoles.
Wow. Just wow
