Pokémon Pokopia Nintendo Switch 2 Bundle Heads to Australia and New Zealand on June 5, 2026

Nintendo has announced a regional bundle pairing the Nintendo Switch 2 with a digital copy of Pokémon Pokopia, with the package confirmed for Australia and New Zealand. The company’s regional account, Nintendo AU NZ, posted the announcement on Twitter on May 5, 2026, and set a release date of June 5, 2026 for the bundle’s availability. The bundle includes a standard Nintendo Switch 2 console and a digital copy of Pokémon Pokopia pre-packaged together. According to Nintendo AU NZ’s announcement, consumers in Australia and New Zealand can purchase the bundle through the My Nintendo Store and select retail partners starting June 5, 2026. It remains unconfirmed whether Nintendo plans to offer the same bundle in other territories. In its message, Nintendo Australia & New Zealand urged fans to watch retailer listings and the My Nintendo Store for availability, effectively advising: the Switch 2 + Pokémon Pokopia bundle will be available from June 5 and should appear on the My Nintendo Store and at participating retailers in Australia and New Zealand. Why this matters: bundles that pair a major first-party franchise with new hardware are a traditional way for Nintendo to drive early hardware engagement and give fans an easy way to jump into a new title. The inclusion of a digital copy means buyers receive immediate access to Pokémon Pokopia without needing a physical cartridge, and distribution through Nintendo’s My Nintendo Store ensures a direct digital storefront channel for the company.
