Pokémon Legends: Arceus will be released on Friday, January 28, 2022.
The cover art, revealed here for the first time, depicts Mount Coronet towering over the expanse of a bygone Sinnoh region—the setting for our story.
A journey through these vast natural reaches awaits you in January!
In Pokémon Legends: Arceus, the Pokémon series takes a bold new direction, fusing action with RPG elements. The game takes place in the Sinnoh region of the past, long before the events of Pokémon Diamond and Pokémon Pearl. As the game’s protagonist, you’ll set out to create and complete the region’s first Pokédex by catching, surveying, and researching the wild Pokémon that live there.
Explore the region, catch lots of Pokémon, fill out your Pokédex, and experience the gameplay of the Pokémon series from a new angle—one that brings you closer to the world and the Pokémon and people in it.
