Pokémon Pokopia Hands-On Demo Set for London’s Pokémon European International Championships

The surprise demo arrives weeks before the Nintendo Switch 2 release on March 5.

Overview

  • The Pokémon Company and Nintendo announced that attendees can play a hands-on demo of Pokémon Pokopia at EUIC from February 13–15 at ExCeL London.
  • Event tickets and reservations for the on-site Pokémon Center pop-up are sold out, limiting in-person access to the demo.
  • Organizers have not detailed what the demo includes, and coverage reports the trial as exclusive to the EUIC event.
  • Pokémon Pokopia is co-developed by Koei Tecmo and Game Freak and is scheduled to launch on March 5 for Nintendo Switch 2.
  • Nintendo has confirmed the physical edition will use the Game‑Key Card system, drawing criticism because it provides an activation key instead of on-card game data.
