Pokémon UNITE to End Service on March 23, 2027
Sales of Aeos gems and new subscriptions and automatic renewals for the UNITE Club membership ended on October 27, 2026. Players can continue using their remaining Aeos gems and existing membership benefits until their respective expiration dates.
A special event and an update featuring a new library feature are scheduled for November 12. The library will allow players who download the required data before the shutdown to view certain battle records, Unite licenses, Holowear and other content even after service ends.
The previously announced Pokémon UNITE Aeos Crown 2027 Tokyo competitive event will also be held as scheduled. After March 23, players will no longer be able to log in or participate in battles.
What Is Pokémon UNITE?
Pokémon UNITE is a team-based battle game in which players control Pokémon and compete to score more points than the opposing team within a set time limit. Pokémon grow and evolve during matches as players work together with their teammates.
The game launched on Nintendo Switch in July 2021 and later expanded to smartphones. It has also developed a competitive scene that includes the Pokémon World Championships and the Pokémon UNITE Koshien high school tournament in Japan.
