Pokemon Legends: Arceus Release Date
Pokemon Legends: Arceus finally launches on January 28th, just days from now. After years of anticipation, this is looking to be one of the most ambitious Pokemon games ever.
Inspired by open-world design and set in the past, it looks to be a shakeup of the formula. As of right now, players have already managed to grab the game from retailers early so watch out for spoilers over the coming days. If you can avoid them all, you only have a few days to give the game a go for yourself.
Pokemon Legends: Arceus Download Size
Pokemon Legends: Arceus is reported to be around 6GB right now but this could change by launch. It seems likely that the game will see a day one update or some changes post-launch to change that download size.
With the base internal storage of a Nintendo Switch being 32 GB, you may want to look into some storage options. If a DLC comes after launch, this will only get bigger.
How to Preload Pokemon Legends: Arceus
As of right now, you can preload Pokemon Legends: Arceus. To do so, just buy the game on the Eshop. It should automatically download the game to your Nintendo Switch.
If you purchased the game before the preload was available, you have to go into your account on the Eshop and click to download it. It's quite an easy process if you look in the right place. It's time to get ready for Friday.
