When will Pokemon Sword and Shield release?

Question

I want to know what is the Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield release date?

Comments

Chances are the game will release on November 22nd because usually they release a Pokemon game on the Friday before Thanksgiving

---

Has anyone confirmed that they always do this?

Answer 1

Just want to add that we now have an official release date: November 15, 2019.

Answer 2

The Nintendo Direct did not specify a release date, only that it will be released in Late 2019, which probably means this autumn or possibly December.

History suggests it'll be mid November, which would make sense this time too since they'll want to capitalise on Black Friday and the holiday season.
