Who published Pokémon Pokopia?

Nintendo published Pokémon Pokopia.

The game was developed by Game Freak and Koei Tecmo’s Omega Force, but Nintendo is credited as its publisher. The Pokémon Company was also involved in the project and is a major rights-holder for the franchise, yet the publishing credit belongs to Nintendo.

This distinction matters because Pokémon games commonly involve several companies. Game Freak is associated with development, The Pokémon Company manages the broader Pokémon brand, and Nintendo publishes many Pokémon releases. Those roles can overlap in public discussions even when the formal credits are different.

Nintendo’s product information lists Pokopia as a Nintendo Switch 2 title and gives its release date as March 5, 2026. The company also distributes the game outside Japan, while the official Pokémon and Nintendo organizations jointly promote its updates and Expansion Pass content.
