Beast of Reincarnation Release Date & Platforms

Short answer: Beast of Reincarnation releases on August 4, 2026. Here are the full details on platforms and where to play.

Release date

The launch date is August 4, 2026, confirmed through the PlayStation Blog in February 2026. After years of development — the project began in 2020 and was first teased as “Project Bloom” in 2023 — Game Freak’s action RPG finally has a firm date.

Platforms

Beast of Reincarnation launches simultaneously on:

• PlayStation 5
• Xbox Series X|S
• PC (via Steam — store page)

It is single-player only, and there’s no announced Nintendo Switch version.

Xbox Game Pass day one

One of the headline details: the game is on Xbox Game Pass from launch day. If you subscribe, you can play it at no additional cost on day one — a notable move for a AAA release of this profile.

Why this is a big deal for Game Freak

This is Game Freak’s first major release on non-Nintendo hardware in years and its first non-Pokémon AAA game. A same-day launch across PS5, Xbox and PC — plus Game Pass — signals real ambition for a studio long synonymous with a single franchise.
