Pokémon Scarlet And Violet: The Hidden Treasure Of Area Zero DLC Epilogue Hits Switch In January

Following its launch last year, Pokémon Scarlet and Violet has received two DLCs as part of its Hidden Treasure of Area Zero storyline. The first, The Teal Mask, hit Switch in September; the second, The Indigo Disk, arrived last week, bringing with it plenty of returning legendaries and favorite starter Pokémon, too. Now, Nintendo and The Pokémon Company have revealed The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero will be getting an epilogue that hits the game in January. 

The companies announced this today with a brief trailer that teases a new adventure in the “Land of Kitakami” that awaits trainers. The epilogue goes live on Thursday, January 11, at 6 a.m. PT/9 a.m. ET, and, outside of goodbyes to friends from the journey of Generation 9, today’s trailer also teases what appears to be a new Pokémon.
