The Switch 2 version of the game features improved performance, enhanced resolution and smoother frame rate — hence the stark contrast in file sizes. Pokémon Legends: Z-A releases on Oct. 16, 2025.

Pokémon Legends: Z-A takes inspiration from Pokémon Legends: Arceus, a critically acclaimed Pokémon adventure that released on Jan. 28, 2022. The game mixes turn-based combat with open-world action mechanics, thereby helping distinguish the title from the other entries in the series.
