Nintendo Singapore has confirmed the Nintendo Switch 2 + Pokémon Pokopia bundle, launching locally on 23 July 2026 at S$769.95. The bundle pairs the Switch 2 console with a full digital download of Pokémon Pokopia — the acclaimed life-simulation game that critics called a spiritual combination of Minecraft, Viva Piñata, and Animal Crossing — making it one of the more compelling entry points for anyone still on the fence about upgrading.
What Is Pokémon Pokopia?
Released worldwide on 5 March 2026 as a Nintendo Switch 2 exclusive, Pokémon Pokopia stars a peculiar Ditto who discovers it can transform into a human and uses that ability — along with moves learned from friendly Pokémon — to restore a desolate world one crafted item at a time. It is a relaxing life simulation developed by Game Freak and Koei Tecmo’s Omega Force, and it became one of the highest-rated Pokémon games on Metacritic at launch.
Gameplay revolves around gathering materials, crafting furniture and structures, farming crops, and transforming the land using moves borrowed from Pokémon companions — Bulbasaur to grow vegetation, Lapras for water, Dragonite for flight. Each Pokémon type favours different habitats, encouraging players to diversify what they build. You can customise your Ditto’s appearance, decorate your home, and invite other players to visit.
Bundle Contents and Value
The S$769.95 bundle includes the full Switch 2 hardware package — console, dock, Joy-Con 2 (L) and (R) with straps, Joy-Con 2 grip, AC adapter, USB-C charging cable, and an Ultra High Speed HDMI cable — alongside a full game download of Pokémon Pokopia (internet connection and Nintendo Account required). The Expansion Pass is sold separately.
Players who already own a Switch 2 can also pick up a Pokémon Pokopia + Expansion Pass bundle through the Nintendo eShop, while newcomers get the full console hardware and game in one purchase.
Co-op, Expansion Pass, and What’s Coming
Up to four players can enjoy building together in the same town, via local wireless or online co-op. GameShare support is also available. Nintendo Switch Online is not required for local play.
The Expansion Pass unlocks two waves of additional content: Bubbly Basin (Part 1, releasing 31 October 2026), an underwater explorable town, and Part 2 arriving 31 March 2027. Both add new areas, Pokémon, and crafting options beyond the base game.
If you have been looking for a reason to pick up a Switch 2, this bundle lands at a good moment — Pokémon Pokopia has consistent active support, the base game is around 50+ hours to settle into comfortably, and the Expansion Pass gives even more to look forward to.
