Potential Pokemon Legends: Z-A Release Date Leaks Online

Pokémon Legends: Z-A: August 15, 2025 Release Date Leak

Rumors suggest Pokémon Legends: Z-A may launch on August 15, 2025, following a leak from Amazon UK in early January 2025. This aligns with The Pokémon Company's previously stated 2025 release window. Official confirmation is anticipated during the Pokémon Presents broadcast on Pokémon Day 2025 (February 27th).

Initially unveiled during the February 2024 Pokémon Day celebrations, Pokémon Legends: Z-A is the highly anticipated sequel to 2022's Pokémon Legends: Arceus. Similar to its predecessor, it's expected to prioritize exploration and collection over traditional gym battles and the Pokémon League. Details have been scarce since its announcement.

The August 15th date surfaced via a fleeting update on the Amazon UK listing, quickly corrected to a placeholder date. This leak, spotted by content creator Light88, adds weight to the speculated release timeframe.

February 2025 Confirmation Possible

Whether the leak is accurate or not, a formal announcement of the release date is likely imminent. Following the pattern set by the game's initial reveal on Pokémon Day 2024, the 2025 event (February 27th) is a prime candidate for the official date unveiling. This date is supported by recent findings from a Pokémon GO dataminer.

Beyond the release date, fans eagerly await a gameplay reveal, also potentially slated for the February 27th Pokémon Presents.

Switch and Switch 2 Compatibility

Pokémon Legends: Z-A will be available on both the Nintendo Switch and the upcoming Switch 2, thanks to the confirmed backward compatibility of the new console. While past mainline Pokémon games have featured paid DLC, Pokémon Legends: Arceus only received one free post-launch update, "Daybreak."
