A New Stage Is Set for the Pokémon Series


The Pokémon Winds and Pokémon Waves games, all-new entries in the Pokémon video game series, will be released exclusively on Nintendo Switch 2 in a simultaneous worldwide release in 2027.

These new titles feature an open world to explore, with beautiful windswept islands and a vast ocean with glittering waves that ebb and flow. The Pokémon that live in harmony with this region’s lush environment have developed their own unique ecosystems. By visiting these islands, you’re sure to open the door to a brand-new adventure that could only be found here.


During this adventure, you’ll be able to team up with all kinds of Pokémon to overcome both the difficult road ahead and even the forces of nature that block your path at times.
