Pokemon Pokopia | £56.85 at ShopTo
The UK might be quiet for pre-order bonuses for now, but you can at least pre-order Pokopia for its lowest price of £56.85 at ShopTo. It's not a major saving, but even a few pounds off helps soften the blow of the fact that this game is a game-key card release only so far.

TheGameCollection was also quick to list its Pokemon Pokopia pre-order, and better yet, it's one of the cheapest place to grab the game so far. Right now, it's just £57.97 to claim your copy ahead of release. That's only a couple of pounds off, but with no pre-order bonuses to be found, it's better than nothing.

What is the Pokemon Pokopia release date?

Pokemon Pokopia launches on the Nintendo Switch 2 on March 5, 2026, worldwide, and will be available as both a digital download and a game-key card release.

Is there a Pokemon Pokopia demo?

There is currently no Pokemon Pokopia demo available, nor has one been announced. However, there are still several months to go until the game's release, so this could change in the near future.

Is the full Pokemon Pokopia game on the cart?

No, the full Pokemon Pokopia Switch 2 game is not available on the cart, as this is a game-key card release. That means while there's a physical cartridge in the box, you will need internet access to download the full 10GB version of the game onto your handheld.

Each time you play the game, you will also need to ensure the game-key card is inserted into your Switch 2.

Is Pokemon Pokopia available on the original Switch?

Pokemon Pokopia is a Nintendo Switch 2 exclusive game, and so is not available on the older Switch handheld. However, the game does have Game Share support, where you can share the game with up to three other players, including those on both the Switch 2 and the original Switch family of handhelds.

Hardware Editor

Ever since I first held a NES controller in my hand I've been obsessed with gaming, and the hardware it runs on. I could hook up a NES and SNES to a telly, without instructions, before I could walk. Even now, nothing is more exciting then taking a console, or handheld, out the box for the first time and setting it up. This obsession transformed into a love of games and game music, which lead to my music degree and dream of becoming the Scottish Nobuo Uematsu. After sharing my love of games through music, I began to share my love through words on sites like TechRadar and iMore. This lead to becoming a Hardware staff writer for PCGamesN, and later the Senior Tech Writer for Dexerto, covering all things Steam Deck, PlayStation and Nintendo. With that experience, I was able to level up as Hardware Editor for GamesRadar+, where I'm still just as Nintendo, PlayStation and gaming tech obsessed as ever.
