Big and bold. Like a badass elephant

Well this has got to be one of the more interesting news stories of the past week or so. Collaborating with SEGA, Game Freak - the developer behind the mainline Pokémon games - is bringing Tembo the Badass Elephant to the PlayStation 4.

The brilliantly named title is a side-scrolling action game, where you unsurprisingly play as Tembo - a particularly badass elephant. The release's first trailer paints some good impressions, with high quality visuals and fast, hectic gameplay.

It looks like it'll be absolutely bonkers, but is this something that you ever saw coming? Squash us in the comments section below.
