Are you ready to catch \u2014 then Mega Evolve \u2014 ’em all over again? Pok\u00e9mon Legends: Z-A<\/a> is finally almost upon us, with its launch set for October 16, priced at $59.99 for Nintendo Switch or $69.99 for Switch 2.<\/p>\n If you don’t have a Switch 2 yet but think you might upgrade in future (perhaps you’re waiting until the holidays for a new console?) you can pick up Pok\u00e9mon Legends Z-A’s Switch 1 version now and then grab the game’s $9.99 Switch 2 Upgrade Pack when you’re ready.<\/p>\n Last but not least, you can already buy Pok\u00e9mon Legends: Z-A: Mega Dimension<\/a>, a paid DLC which will add two new Mega Evolutions for Raichu and fresh story content. The bulk of this won’t come until after the game’s launch, though buying it now will unlock extra costume items immediately.<\/p>\n You can already pre-load Pok\u00e9mon Legends: Z-A now via the Nintendo eShop, including the game’s day one update. You’ll need 4.1GB of free space on Nintendo Switch, or 7.7GB of free space on Switch 2.<\/p>\n In the run-up to the game’s launch, it’s worth being wary of spoilers<\/a> \u2014 datamining work has already begun on the game after physical copies were spotted in the wild. Indeed, IGN has seen word of some of the all-new Mega Pok\u00e9mon included in the game \u2014 though we won’t spoil them here.<\/p>\n
