This week’s installment of the Eurogamer Newscast delves into the surprising revelation that the highly anticipated next installment in the Pokémon series is slated for a mysterious debut in 2025.
Interestingly, reminiscent of our discussion on the impending arrival of Switch 2 in last week’s episode, could Pokémon Legends: Z-A also find its place on Nintendo’s forthcoming console?
It’s worth noting that Nintendo has seldom skipped a year without delivering a significant Pokémon title or expansion. Thus, the unveiling of Pokémon Legends: Z-A for a 2025 release raises eyebrows, especially considering the absence of any actual gameplay footage during yesterday’s announcement.
Could this be another crucial piece in the puzzle of Switch 2’s features and lineup? What can we anticipate from the enigmatic Z-A once it’s unveiled in its entirety? Moreover, in a lighter vein, just how many quirky, French-themed Pokémon concepts can we conjure up?
Joining me this week to dissect these intriguing developments are Eurogamer’s Ed Nightingale, Victoria Kennedy, and Liv Ngan.
