Thursday October 22, 2020 at 12:47 p.m.

Pokémon Sword and Shield has been a huge hit on the Switch, with many of us spending hours there catching every Pokémon available in the game

Fans of the title have been eagerly awaiting the launch of the DLC expansion pack, Crown Tundra, so they can do even more in the game and the time has finally come with the pack that launches tomorrow, although we do not do it still have an exact time

Our best guess is that the pack will drop around 5pm on October 23rd here in the UK, which means we know what we’re gonna be doing on Friday now!

This is of course only an estimate, but with maintenance scheduled to start at 11:00 PM tonight ending at 4:00 AM and then a downloadable update available right after… well, all the signs point to Crown Tundra being playable then

The game released details on what players can expect when they get their hands on it, saying, “With The Crown Tundra, trainers will be able to meet all of the Legendary Pokémon that have appeared in the main series of pokemon video games Players can find and catch Legendary Pokémon while traveling the Crown Tundra or while participating in Dynamax Adventures «

There’s also Dynamax Adventures, a four-player cooperative part of the game. As for what that involves, Pokémon said, “In Dynamax Adventures, you’ll team up with three other trainers to explore a Pokémon Den where the Pokémon Dynamax would be hiding!  »
