The latest Pokémon game brings a significant change to the series, but still feels familiar.
The Nintendo Switch 2 has been out for five months, and Pokémon Legends Z-A is one of its biggest games.
The game promises a new take on core gameplay with real-time combat, but it doesn't revolutionize the game as expected.
The new twist to the classic combat isn’t the huge revitalization of the game that I expected.
Battles still have tense moments, and the use of same attacks makes them similar to turn-based games.
The game world is also a major change, offering a new experience.
Overall, the game is still fun, but not drastically different from other Pokémon games.
