Is Pokemon Unite on PC? If you're asking yourself that question, you've come to the right place. Pokemon Unite is the brand new MOBA from Tencent and Nintendo that combines the world of Pokemon with a structure resembling League of Legends. As a free-to-play, experimental title, it's already managed to take the world by storm, which is probably why so many people are wondering whether or not they own a platform they're able to play it on.
Pokemon Unite is a free download, meaning that anyone who has the means to play it can do so without spending a single penny. There are microtransactions - it's a MOBA, after all - but these are mostly cosmetic. Anything that gives you an edge in battle can be purchased using the in-game currencies you get from competing in matches, leveling up, and completing challenges.
Here's everything you need to know about Pokemon Unite platforms, including the answer to whether or not Pokemon Unite is on PC at launch.
Is Pokemon Unite On PC?
Ah, the all-important question. Unfortunately, Pokemon Unite is not on PC at the time of writing. As of today, July 21, Pokemon Unite is only available to download and play on the Nintendo Switch. It's coming to mobile in September. meaning that you'll be able to play on your phone then if you don't own a Switch, but unfortunately this is one MOBA that PC players aren't going to have access to right now.
That's not to say Pokemon Unite will never come to PC. It's difficult to guess as to whether or not Pokemon Unite will become available on other platforms at a later date. On one hand, Pokemon Unite being successful could convince the devs that porting it to PC and other consoles could be in their best interest. On the other, the fact it's coming to mobile likely means it will have a pretty immense playerbase regardless, and managing a game that's only playable on Swtich and mobile is probably a hell of a lot easier than optimizing it for PC.
So, right now, Pokemon Unite is not available on PC. Sorry about that - fingers crossed for a port down the line.
