Pokémon Café Mix has announced a Closed Beta Test will take place in Japan this summer to test out new features of the game which will launch later in 2021.

Announcement of Closed Beta Test Participant Recruitment

Thank you very much for playing Pokémon Café Mix. We are currently developing an updated version of the game with the goal of releasing it in the fall of 2021 in order to better satisfy our customers. We have now completed the beta version of the game. We will be holding a closed beta test for players to experience the new version. Players must reside in Japan and be able to play the game in Japan during the test period. Players must also have a Support ID which are issued to those who have played the game before. It can be found in the upper right corner of the main menu screen when the game is launched.

We will take the opinions and impressions of those who have played the game seriously, and we will strive to further improve the quality of the game for the official release. Here is some information on the new features implemented in the closed beta version of the game! Please participate in the closed beta test and let us know your impressions of these new features and elements through the questionnaire! We are looking forward to your participation in the closed beta test.


Power up during the gimmick-eliminating puzzles! The new element Unique Gimmick has been added! You can now combine megaphones to increase power.


Collecting Pokémon is even more fun! Get them to eat your food and become good friends! Collect as many Pokémon as you can from the staff! The staff Pokémon come up with a new menu and new Pokémon will hear about it and come to your restaurant as customers!


Power up your favorite Pokémon by raising them! You can now dress-up your staff Pokémon! As your level increases, your Pokémon's abilities will improve, making it easier to complete puzzles!
