Pokemon Legends: Z-A is one of the most anticipated games of the year and the next step in a series that has captivated millions of players for years. The project will take players to a new location and offer a fresh look at familiar mechanics.
It has already been confirmed that the game will feature expanded battles with Mega Evolutions and multiplayer modes. The release is scheduled for October 16, 2025, on Nintendo Switch and Switch 2, allowing players to experience the new game on two generations of consoles.
The Pokémon Company has released a new trailer that showcases Mega Hawlucha for the first time — a unique form of the Pokémon that first appeared in Pokémon X/Y.
A trial demonstration of the Z-A Battle Club mode took place at the Pokémon World Championships. This is a cooperative mode for four players where teams battle against giant Mega-Pokémon in a new format. For owners of the version on the old Switch, a paid upgrade option to the Switch 2 version will be available, featuring improved graphics, animation, and a higher frame rate.
