Pokemon Legends Z-A

With Pokémon Legends: Z-A out in just two weeks, Nintendo has released a new overview trailer for the Switch 2 version. It outlines everything you need to know about the RPG, from its combat mechanics and the Z-A Royale to Hotel Z and its various characters. Check it out below.

Pokémon Legends: Z-A follows a new trainer who arrives in Lumiose City in the Kalos Region. Meant as a place for humans and Pokémon to live side by side, it faces the threat of mysterious Rogue Mega-Evolved Pokémon. The Z-A Royale, which takes place at night and offers competitive battling, is also suspicious because the one who achieves the top rank can have any wish granted.

Regardless, you’ll be investigating alongside Hotel Z’s residents, forming Team MZ in the process. Of course, online battles against other players are also available, including new Link Battles. The Nintendo Switch 2 version is notable for its higher frame rate and resolution. Those who purchase the original Switch version can upgrade later for a price.

Pokémon Legends: Z-A launches on October 16th for Nintendo Switch 1 and 2. Check out the latest Mega Evolutions and the Mega Dimension DLC here.
