Continue your Pokémon Sword adventure in The Isle of Armor and The Crown Tundra, two new areas to explore that will be added to the Galar region as part of the Pokémon Sword Expansion Pass
Each area offers a different adventure, where you’ll be able to visit the far reaches of the Galar region and meet the people and Pokémon that live there. You’ll also see some familiar Pokémon that didn’t appear in the Galar region before, a total of over 200 Pokémon
Keep the adventure going with your existing Pokémon Sword save data and jump into this new expansion to Pokémon Sword! With the Pokémon Sword Expansion Pass, you’ll be able to enjoy both The Isle of Armor and The Crown Tundra as they’re released
The Isle of Armor – The first new adventure unlocked by the Expansion Pass will take place on the Isle of Armor, an island of the Galar region. Many Pokémon make this island their home, living freely amid the lush nature. The island is also home to a dojo for Pokémon battles.
Players and their Pokémon will train hard to become stronger under Mustard, the master of this dojo.
The Crown Tundra – The second area unlocked by the Expansion Pass is the snow-swept realm of the Crown Tundra. In this frigid yet beautiful landscape-with its jagged winter mountains and shining, silvery landscape-people live in small communities where they support and rely on one another.
A man named Peony will appoint the player as the leader of his exploration team in the Crown Tundra and task them with investigating the reaches of this frozen land. Players will also be able to explore the depths of the Pokémon Dens seen during Max Raid Battles.
What’s more, it seems several previously unseen Legendary Pokémon make the Crown Tundra their home.
If you purchase the Pokémon Sword + Pokémon Sword Expansion Pass, you’ll get some in-game apparel as a bonus
