The latest Nintendo Direct offered Pokéfans more footage of The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero DLC for Pokémon Scarlet & Violet. Check out the chock-full preview below!

The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero DLC is a combination of two upcoming expansions to Pokémon Scarlet & VioletThe Teal Mask, which is arriving on Nintendo Switch this fall, and The Indigo Disk, which lands later this winter. This sneak peek shows off several of the new pocket monsters arriving in Paldea later this year, including Munkidori, Okidogi, and Fezandipiti. These three are guardians of The Teal Mask‘s Kitakami Village. They’re all brimming with as much expressive character as you’d expect from Game Freak and are sure to become fan favorites soon.

Two new legendary Pokémon also made appearances in the trailer, Ogerpon, and Terapagos, and they appear to be bringing many longtime favorites to the game, including Seel, Ninetails, and Snorlax! Seeing old friends is among my favorite parts of playing modern Pokémon games, so I especially appreciate Game Freak’s commitment to returning older ‘mons.

Exact release dates for The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero‘s The Teal Mask and The Indigo Disk are TBD, but we know the whole package will run gamers $34.99 USD. For the latest on this DLC and all things Pokémon, stick with RPGFan!
