There's not long to go before Pokémon Legends Z-A releases worldwide, and this guide will help you keep track of the upcoming launch.

The game is currently available for pre-order in both Digital and Physical formats (specific to certain regions), and you can grab a copy to set yourself up for the launch. While the launch will happen at midnight for most regions, the format is different if you're located in the United States.

will be going live on Oct. 16 for almost all regions worldwide, unless you're situated in the central and western regions of the US. The countdown below is based on Chicago Time and marks the exact point when the game becomes available in the US.

[hurrytimer id="1128851"] The countdown is based on the following times.

• EDT 12am (Oct. 16)
• CDT 11pm (Oct. 15)
• PDT 9pm (Oct. 15)

If you're located outside the United States, Legends Z-A will go live when the clock strikes midnight in your region. Gamers in New Zealand will be able to access the game as soon as possible, while the US is likely to be the last.

How to play Pokémon Legends Z-A early

  won't work.
• Redeem the codes to add funds to your wallet and make sure you have enough to purchase the game.
• Open your console and log in with your account. Open the eShop, and it will open the New Zealand version.
• Purchase the game and wait for it to be midnight in New Zealand.

It's pretty apparent that if you have already purchased the game on your original account, you will be unable to use this trick (unless you spend the same amount and get an extra copy).
