Pokémon Scarlet & Violet first DLC is leaving Paldea – here’s when it launches

THE Pokémon Company announced Monday the first DLC for Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, three months after the games’ release.

The upcoming DLC is called The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero and will be split into two expansions, with the first one releasing this autumn, and the second coming by the end of 2023.

Pokémon Scarlet & Violet’s first DLC, The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero, is now available to pre-order.

The DLC will be leaving the Paldea region introduced in the base games, and will explore new areas and add new Pokémon.

Two new legendary Pokémon, Ogerpon and Terapagos, were revealed to be coming with the DLC.

The first expansion is called The Teal Mask and will let players visit a new region, known as Kitakami.

The Teal Mask adds more Pokémon, called Fezandipiti, Munkidori, and Okidogi, which look just as weird as their names sound.

The he second part of the DLC, The Indigo Disk, will see you travelling as an exchange student at Blueberry Academy.

Much like DLC for previous Pokémon games, like Sword and Shield, The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero will bring back over 230 old Pokémon.

These Pokémon from previous generations that were not included in Scarlet and Violet, have been confirmed to return in the DLC

Both parts of the upcoming DLC are available for pre-order starting today via the Nintendo eShop, bundled together for £31.49.

The price of the DLC is for either Scarlet or Violet, so if you own both games and want the DLC on both, you will have to pay double.

If you don’t own any of the games yet, you can buy a bundle including one of the games and the DLC for it, for £81.48.

Pre-orders are getting two bonuses – new outfits for your trainer and a code for a Hisuian Zoroark with the Charismatic Mark and a Dark Tera-type.

You can get these as long as you purchase the DLC before the end of October.
