Pokémon Quest, the latest adventure from renowned developer Game Freak and The Pokémon Company, has officially launched on the Nintendo Switch via the Nintendo eShop.
This free-to-play action RPG presents a fresh take on the beloved franchise, featuring a distinctive blocky art style and a family-friendly approach.
Mobile fans can also look forward to experiencing Pokémon Quest on the App Store and Google Play when it launches for iOS and Android devices in late June. Set on Tumblecube Island, Pokémon Quest invites players into a vibrant world packed with hidden treasures, wild Pokémon encounters, and special collectible items.
Unlike traditional entries in the Pokémon series, this title boasts a cubic, voxel-inspired design, transforming familiar pocket monsters into charming, cube-shaped Pokéxel companions. Players assemble a team of up to three Pokémon and set out to explore Tumblecube Island's secrets.
Along the journey, trainers can collect treasures, battle a variety of wild Pokémon, and befriend new allies.
The befriending mechanic revolves around gathering unique ingredients to cook tasty dishes, which in turn attract different Pokémon to your base camp.
By managing recipes and resources, players can diversify their team as their adventure unfolds. Customization is a cornerstone of Pokémon Quest.
The game introduces Power Stones—items used to personalize and strengthen each member of a player's party.
As players progress, they'll discover a range of Power Stones that offer various stat boosts and abilities, allowing for tailored team compositions and strategic battles.
Beyond team management, the base camp can be decorated with a host of collectible items, each providing distinct in-game benefits to enhance the overall adventure. Game Freak director Shigeru Ohmori described the experience by saying that Pokémon Quest enables fans to traverse Tumblecube Island with a team of endearing, cube-shaped Pokémon.
According to Ohmori, the straightforward touch-screen controls make the game accessible: "Players can personalize their Pokémon and forge strong bonds as they battle through exciting stages.
Thanks to intuitive controls, Pokémon Quest is designed for fans of all ages to easily pick up and play." With its worldwide debut on the Nintendo Switch eShop, Pokémon Quest is poised to extend the franchise’s reach to both console and mobile audiences.
As part of Nintendo’s growing free-to-play catalog, this innovative twist on the Pokémon formula offers hours of exploration and customization for fans globally.
Watch for its upcoming release on the App Store and Google Play later this month.
