Pokémon fans will be glad to learn that Games Freak will launch expansion passes for Pokémon Sword and Shield. The pass will let players to access two new zones. The zones have been curiously named “The Isle of Armor” and “The Crown Tundra”. They will be released separately as downloadable packs in June and sometime later during the autumn. The news has been welcomed by the game’s fans positively, and many are eager to purchase the passes as soon as they are available.
Here is what you can expect from the zones in the expansion passes:
- Both the zones will feature new plots and stories
- They will amuse you with non-playable characters

As there are going to be two DLCs, the plotlines in each of the stories will vary. This means, each pass comes with characters that are unique and different.

Even those who do not buy the expansion pass will be able to trade new creatures in exchange for the game. You can also transfer monsters that you collected from older games such as Let’s Go Eevee and Let’s go Pikachu.
When are the expansion passes going to be available?

The Isle of Armor is expected in June this year, while The Crown of Tundra is expected to be available in the autumn. The expansion pass costs $30 and is a great investment for those who are into Pokémon.
