Nintendo’s latest Nintendo Direct announcement brings us Pokken Tournament DX, Pokemon UltraSun and UltraMoon Pokemon Gold and Silver with their launch dates, but not all these games are out for the Switch.
First up is Pokken Tournament DX, which is the first Pokemon game for the system. The fighting game has been released before on the Wii U, with the newer, deluxe version to hit the Nintendo Switch. The new version also includes five new Pokemon on top of the original 16, including Scizor, Darkrai, Empoleon, Croagunk, and Decidueye.
Pokken Tournament DX comes out on 22 December, with a tourney to happen on 14 June at E3.
Next up is Pokemon UltraSun and UltraMoon, which is well, Pokemon Sun and Moon but with an alternate story and it will feature Pokemon that weren’t originally available in the game. They haven’t revealed exactly what Pokemon yet, but we doubt there will be completely new Pokemon. Also, this game is out for the Nintendo 3DS, which means that the Switch still isn’t getting a fully fledged Pokemon title.
Pokemon UltraSun and UltraMoon hits 17 November.
Last but not least is Pokemon Gold and Silver on the Switch’s virtual console service. Both games will be compatible with Nintendo’s Pokemon Bank service, so if you want to transfer your fave old-school Pokemon over to Generation VII, it’s a lot easier.
Like Pokken Tournament DX, it will be out on 22 September.
