Today, The Pokemon Company revealed a brand new trailer forPokemon Unite.
This trailer revealed a handful of new details including the release date on the Nintendo Switch and a special bonus for players.

Is Pokemon Unite free?
So, yes,Pokemon Unitewill be completely free-to-play on both the Nintendo Switch and on Mobile, however, that doesn’t mean that players can’t spend any money.
What Elements of Pokemon Unite will Cost?
It’s already been revealed that there will be a range of different costumes that players can purchase to make their Pokemon look super-snazzy. Who doesn’t want a showman Mr. Mime
There is also certainly going to be new Pokemon added to the game at a later date, therefore, there is always the possibility that players will in fact be charged for them.
This doesn’t seem impossible asPokemon Uniteis being developed by TiMi Studios, a subsidiary of Tencent, who is known for having microtransactions in their games.
Is the game coming to PC?
The Pokemon Company has confirmed that the game is only coming to the Nintendo Switch and Mobile Devices.
This was always likely to be the case as it has very, very rarely released its titles on PC and although MOBAs are generally better suited to PC, it’s hard to imagine this popping up there.
