Pokémon Legends: Z-A Gets Mewtwo Mission and Mega DLC Reveal

Nintendo and The Pokémon Company have unveiled new content for Pokémon Legends: Z-A, including a side mission to capture the Legendary Pokémon Mewtwo and its Mega Evolution stones, available immediately to players who have completed the main story. This update coincides with the reveal of the upcoming Mega Dimension DLC, set for release on December 10, 2025, which introduces a novel Z Mega Evolution form for Lucario and explores a distorted version of Lumiose City.

Players can access the Mewtwo side mission, known as Project M, by first obtaining the Mewtwonite X and Mewtwonite Y Mega Stones through the game's Mystery Gift feature. To do so, connect to the internet via the Link Play menu and select the Project M gift, which adds the stones to the inventory without requiring a Nintendo Switch Online subscription. With the main campaign finished, head to Floor B3F of Lysandre Labs beneath Lysandre Cafe in Lumiose City. The stones trigger the mission upon entry, releasing Mewtwo from containment. A voice from Mable, a Team Flare associate, warns of the Pokémon's danger and urges its capture, initiating the encounter.
