The Pokémon Company's highly anticipated annual Pokémon Presents broadcast is happening today at 2 PM UK time. Fans can catch the live stream right here on Eurogamer. For our viewers in North America, the broadcast will be available at 6 AM Pacific Time and 9 AM Eastern Time. Make sure you set your Nintendo Alarmo so you don’t miss out on this exciting event!
Today’s Pokémon Presents is part of the annual celebration of Pokémon Day, which commemorates the anniversary of the original Pokémon Red and Green titles that first launched on the Game Boy. This year's broadcast promises to be filled with thrilling announcements and updates that fans have been eagerly awaiting.
All eyes are on the highly anticipated Pokémon Legends Z-A, which is set to be the biggest Pokémon launch of the year for the Nintendo Switch. As of now, we have yet to see any gameplay footage, and fans are curious to learn about possible upgrades when playing on the upcoming Switch 2. Legends Z-A is expected to take players back to the beloved Kalos region, which was the setting for Pokémon X and Y, and will likely incorporate the popular Mega Evolution mechanic.
As a continuation of the Legends series, Pokémon Legends Z-A is anticipated to have a more action-RPG focus, similar to its predecessor, Pokémon Legends Arceus. However, while Arceus took players to a distant past, Z-A seems to be set in a modern or near-future timeline, which may introduce new gameplay dynamics and story elements.
In addition to the spotlight on Pokémon Legends Z-A, today's Pokémon Presents is expected to showcase updates on various ongoing games in the franchise, including Pokémon Unite, Pokémon TCG Pocket, and the ever-popular Pokémon Go. Recent reports have surfaced indicating that Pokémon Go may be in talks for a sale to the Saudi-backed Savvy Games Group, in a deal worth an impressive $3.5 billion. However, don’t expect any updates on this development during today’s presentation.
Be sure to watch along with us at 2 PM as we dive into the latest news and updates from The Pokémon Company. Whether you’re a long-time fan or new to the Pokémon universe, today’s Pokémon Presents promises to deliver exciting content that you won't want to miss!
