The news expansions were announced during a surprise Sword and Shield Nintendo Direct for January 2020.
It begins in June 2020 with Sword and Shield’s Isle of Armor DLC, followed by The Crown Tundra DLC in autumn.
The expansion pass introduces two new areas split into two parts, as well as new customisation options, Pokemon and characters.
Most exciting of all is the ability to explore two brand new regions based on parts of the UK.
The Isle of Armor is said to be inspired by the Isle of Man, while the Crown Tundra is a snowy landscape inspired by Scotland.
Fans who pre-order the expansions will also receive download codes for some in-game uniforms based on Pikachu and Eevee.
“Fans will be able to receive the Pikachu and Eevee Uniforms in Pokemon Sword or Pokemon Shield by using codes that they will receive after they purchase the Expansion Pass,” Game Freak explains.
