Product identity

Pokemon Sword is a role-playing game for the Nintendo Switch platform. It suits players who want a new generation of Pokemon adventures in the Galar region.

The game installs by inserting the cartridge into the console or downloading from the eShop after redemption. Setup requires a Nintendo Switch system and enough internal or microSD storage for save data and updates. Common issues include insufficient free space or an outdated system firmware blocking the launch.
