Nintendo UK has confirmed a Nintendo Switch 2 bundle that pairs the new hardware with a full-game download of Pokémon Pokopia, due to launch in Europe on July 2.
The bundle, which includes a complete digital copy of Pokémon Pokopia, is positioned as a way for players to jump straight into the game on Nintendo’s latest platform.
Pokémon Pokopia is described by Nintendo UK as a relaxing life-simulation experience focused on crafting, building and world restoration.
The game’s narrative opens in a withered landscape where Pokémon and humans once lived together; a lone Tangrowth remains when play begins.
Players assume the role of a Ditto that awakens and uses transformation and newfound crafting abilities to restore the environment and rebuild communities.
Nintendo UK’s announcement frames the gameplay loop around creation and calm progression: players craft items, construct buildings, plant gardens and invite Pokémon and friends to visit their rebuilt paradises.
The title supports up to four players in both online and local wireless multiplayer, allowing cooperative play in the same world.
According to the statement from Nintendo UK, Pokémon Pokopia will receive a free content update this August that expands exploration to the ocean floor.
The update introduces the Dive move, which enables players to plant grass, build structures and create underwater towns alongside Pokémon.
Nintendo UK also confirmed paid post-launch content: the Pokémon Pokopia Expansion Pass will add three parts of additional content, with Part 1 — Bubbly Basin — launching in August.
Bubbly Basin will bring an underwater town, new furniture, outfits and additional Pokémon companions.
The Europe bundle announcement underscores Nintendo’s approach to pairing software-driven experiences with hardware launches, offering immediate access to a title designed around Nintendo Switch 2’s capabilities.
For players interested in the bundle, Nintendo UK’s release provides the confirmed July 2 availability window and details on the free August update and the Expansion Pass schedule.
For purchasing and download details, players should consult their regional Nintendo eShop and official Nintendo UK channels on or after the announced release date.
