Pokémon Legends: Z-A Overview Trailer Released

Nintendo and The Pokémon Company have released a new trailer for Pokémon Legends: Z-A ahead of the game’s release later this month. The six-minute overview trailer gives an introduction to the game’s setting of Lumiose City, as well as its Wild Zone habitats, combat, the Z-A Royale tournament, Rogue Mega Evolved Pokémon, and more.

Pokémon Legends: Z-A will release on October 16, 2025, on Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2. The game takes place in Lumiose City as it undergoes an urban redevelopment plan intended to “shape the city into a place that belongs to both people and Pokémon”. It changes up the series’ traditional turn-based combat with a new real-time combat where trainers and Pokémon move around in real-time and unleash moves when commanded.
