With the Nintendo Switch 2's launch approaching quickly, the Nintendo community has been wondering what games will be coming to the brand-new console as the holiday season approaches. One major question has been answered, as today The Pokemon Company confirmed that Pokemon Legends: Z-A will launch October 16 on Nintendo Switch--with an upgraded Nintendo Switch 2 Edition releasing the same day.
Official Pokemon social media accounts confirmed the release date and the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition, which will feature "improved graphics and frame rates." Both the physical and digital versions of Pokemon Legends Z-A will be eligible for upgrade to the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition via a separate "upgrade pack" purchase.
Pokemon Legends: Z-A takes place in the Paris-inspired Lumiose City, part of the Kalos region from Pokemon X and Y. Players will search for Pokemon in designated zones, battle with other Trainers in the streets and on rooftops, and compete in a nightly contest called Z-A Royale.
The Pokemon Company also announced a new Pokemon Presents livestream--where updates for new and existing Pokemon games are routinely revealed--for July 22. Specific timing has not been announced as of this writing.
The Nintendo Switch 2 launches June 5 worldwide, with 20 games set for its launch lineup. While no Pokemon games are scheduled to launch alongside the new console, notable games coming to Switch 2 on day one include Mario Kart World, Cyberpunk 2077: Ultimate Edition, and Bravely Default: Flying Fairy HD Remaster. The Nintendo GameCube will also join the Nintendo Switch Online Nintendo Classics lineup, with The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker and Soul Calibur 2 among the initial offerings. Multiple Switch games will also receive free upgrades on the Switch 2, with Pokemon Scarlet and Violet included among them.
