The wait is officially over for Pokémon Sword and Shield! The latest duo of Pokémon games are now available for purchase around the world for Nintendo Switch. Pokémon Sword and Shield allow you to choose from three new partner Pokémon and encounter never-before-seen Pokémon. Explore the Wild Area, a vast expanse of land where the player can freely control the camera. You can also team up with other players locally or online in the new multiplayer co-op Max Raid Battles. Be aware that if you purchase the digital version of Pokémon Sword or Pokémon Shield via the Nintendo eShop, you won’t be able to buy the Double Pack/Dual Pack. You can, however, buy either game and the physical edition of the Double Pack/Dual Pack in stores. As you can see in the image above, Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield app icons feature Zacian and Zamazenta, respectively.
