Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire Dual Pack Saves No Money

Pokemon Omega Ruby Alpha Sapphire Dual Pack

The price of the Dual Pack of Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire is the same as buying both games separately, but the combo comes with 200 potions.

Can’t decide whether to buy Pokemon Omega Ruby or Pokemon Alpha Sapphire? Nintendo announced today a Dual Pack including both games. Packaged with both games are two redeemable codes for 100 potions each.

However, the dual pack does not offer any savings on the games. Separately, each game costs $39.99. The dual pack costs $79.98, making it the equivalent of buying each separately. The difference is that both games will be packaged in one box. Like each separate game, it launches November 21.

The dual pack is exclusive to Best Buy and Amazon. Nintendo has no plans to release it outside of the U.S., a spokesperson confirmed to IGN.

As always with the core Pokemon games, each version has exclusive Pokemon. In order to fully complete your Pokedex, you either need some friends with the other version or you need to own both. Also, the version players pick will determine which legendary Pokemon they catch and which team (Team Magma or Team Aqua) will be up to trouble.

Like Pokemon X and Y, many Pokemon in the games will have Mega Evolutions; several have already been announced.

A demo for Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire is available now, but interested players will need a demo code.
