Anyone who skipped Pokémon Legends: Z-A or its Mega Dimension DLC will be able to pick up both on a single Switch 2 game card when the Pokémon Legends: Z-A Switch 2 Edition + Mega Dimension bundle releases on October 29, 2026. The Pokémon Company announced the bundle with a purchase bonus attached, a serial code for 100 Ultra Balls through Mystery Gift. The game card also works on the original Switch, although playing it there gets you the same content as the standard Switch version, without any of the features that take advantage of the Switch 2’s hardware. Pricing for the bundle hasn’t been announced yet, but Nintendo lists the Switch 2 Edition at $69.99 and Mega Dimension at $29.99 on their own.
Pokémon Legends: Z-A launched on October 16, 2025, on Switch and Switch 2 and sold 5.8 million units in its first week, with about half of those copies on Switch 2. Mega Dimension followed on December 10, 2025, with an expanded story that starts when Ansha shows up at Hotel Z with the Mythical Pokémon Hoopa as spatial distortions appear across Lumiose City. Team MZ borrows Hoopa’s power to explore one of those distortions and finds Hyperspace Lumiose, a version of the city filled with different, hyper-strong Pokémon, and the DLC also brings Mega Raichu X and Mega Raichu Y.
In my review, I said Pokémon Legends: Z-A on Switch 2 is without a doubt the best a Pokémon game has looked on console, and performance was great, with no major frame drops and a handheld mode that really does look good. The rest of the game didn’t do nearly as much for me, though, since the combat got boring and repetitive and Lumiose City grew bland within a few hours. I also had a hard time connecting with any of the characters during my 35-hour playthrough because of the lack of voice acting, and compared to other modern games, I called it a very average experience.
