On which platform was Pokémon Pokopia released worldwide on March 5, 2026?

Pokémon Pokopia was released worldwide on March 5, 2026, for Nintendo Switch 2.

The platform is significant because Pokopia was designed as a Nintendo Switch 2-exclusive title rather than a cross-generation release. Nintendo and The Pokémon Company presented it as a new kind of Pokémon experience built around crafting, construction, habitats, and relaxed social simulation.

Pokopia is separate from the mainline Pokémon role-playing games. Players control a Ditto imitating a human and help restore a damaged world populated by Pokémon. The Nintendo Switch 2 version supports both single-player and multiplayer modes, while later promotional material highlighted features such as local wireless play, online visits, and GameShare. The game is therefore often discussed alongside other Switch 2 launch-period software, but its release date was March 5 rather than the console's launch day. It should also not be confused with games released for the original Nintendo Switch, because the English Wikipedia article lists Nintendo Switch 2 as its platform.
