Today we got a new Pokémon Presents presentation, which included plenty of news on upcoming games, DLC, and more. First up, we got a new trailer and a release date for the two-party Pokémon Scarlet and Violet expansion, “The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero.” The first half of this expansion, “The Teal Mask” is set to drop in September and will see you visit the new Land of Kitakami, which has a Japanese festival theme. Based on the new trailer, it looks like you’ll also be exploring some caves and unraveling a bit of a mystery as well. As for the second half of the expansion, entitled “The Indigo Disk,” it still doesn’t have a release date, but will see players visit a new school, Blueberry Academy, set on a manmade island in the middle of the ocean. You can check out the new Hidden Treasure of Area Zero trailer, below.

In other Pokémon Scarlet and Violet news, a new co-op Terra Raid Battle featuring Mewtwo kicks off on September 1, and as part of that, everybody gets a free Mew if they enter the code “GETY0URMEW” as part of the mystery gift feature before September 18.

But that’s not all! We also got a fresh look at Detective Pikachu Returns, including an overview of its characters and a look at some of its minute-to-minute gameplay. The game drops on October 6.
