Pokémon Legends: ZA for Switch and Switch 2 launches next week, October 16, 2025, and ahead of this highly anticipated release, there have been a few developments…
First, if you purchased a digital copy of the title from the eShop, it should now preload (or at least soon) will appear in your system’s HOME menu. As a reminder, the Switch version of this game can also be exchanged for a game voucher in certain regions. And Nintendo will also offer a paid Switch 2 upgrade for the original version.
If you’re interested in picking up a physical copy, be sure to check out our pre-order guide here on Nintendo Life. Nintendo is also offering a hardware bundle, bundled with the Switch 2 and the game, and retailers will offer pre-order bonuses with standalone purchases, including special codes.
Along with this news regarding Legends: ZA preloads, the game has also reportedly received an update, bringing it to version 1.0.1. We don’t know the details of this patch yet, but if we hear anything we’ll be sure to let you know.
