If you preorder the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition of Pokémon Legends Z-A, you'll be treated to improved graphics and frame rates. It's also worth noting that if you buy the Nintendo Switch version, you can always upgrade it to the Switch 2 version by purchasing an upgrade pack.

What Is Pokémon Legends Z-A?

Set in Lumiose City, a place for both people and Pokémon, Pokémon Legends Z-A will see you living life as a Pokémon Trainer in the big city. You'll be able to choose between Chikorita, Tepig, or Totodile as your starter Pokémon to join you on a journey around the city. As mentioned in the title as well, you'll also be able to participate in a tournament called the "Z-A Royale", with the goal of working your way through the competition to reach rank A.

A Pokémon Presents presentation is set for July 22, which could very well feature some more information on the highly-anticipated upcoming game as well.
