However, New Pokemon Snap is not designed to be linear. Travel between Lental islands is instant, which is convenient because you will keep going back and forth as you enter new fields, stages and research levels.
How to unlock all locations in the new Pokemon snapshot
Due to the fragmented exploration of the game, it is difficult to determine when and how to expect to unlock new stages. For example, you can’t actually explore the research camp as the character’s nominal base of operations until about halfway through the game, which is a bit counterintuitive.
To help you, we have prepared a cheat sheet for each stage of the game, roughly following each available stage of the game and the steps required to unlock them.
