We’ve got a launch date for Pokémon Legends: Z-A — it’s set for October 16, 2025, on both the Nintendo Switch and the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition. Preorders open on June 5 — yep, the same day the Switch 2 launches.

If you buy the physical or digital version of the game for the Nintendo Switch, you’ll be able to upgrade to the Switch 2 Edition at a later date. The Switch 2 version runs at a higher framerate and resolution. Here are the two box arts for the games:

Pricing for the game is set at $89.95 AUD / $99.95 NZD for the Nintendo Switch version, and the Nintendo Switch 2 version will be higher at $109.95 AUD / $119.95 NZD.

So, when will we learn more about the game? Luckily, a Pokémon Presents has been announced for Tuesday, July 22 — we’ll let you know once the time is confirmed.

Pokemon’s locked in, so what about Metroid then?
