The Pokemon Company and Game Freak have released the Pokemon Legends: Arceus version 1.1.0 update, dubbed “Daybreak,” which begins a new investigation into a phenomenon causing outbreaks of Pokemon across the Hisui region.

The companies also announced that production of an online animated series produced by Wit Studio and set in the Hisui region has begun and will premiere later in 2022.

Here is an overview of the update, via the game’s official website:

■ Daybreak Update
In the Daybreak update, you will begin investigating mysterious mass outbreaks of Pokemon that are popping up all over the Hisui region. You’ll also have a chance to battle powerful opponents—like Legendary Pokemon and wardens—adding yet more options to your Pokemon battle experience.
Daybreak content will be available after viewing the game’s end credits.

Massive Mass Outbreaks of Pokemon Reported in the Hisui Region
A mysterious phenomenon is emerging across Hisui: mass outbreaks of Pokemon in multiple places, accompanied by rainstorms. Head out to investigate with Warden Mai of the Diamond Clan and her partner Munchlax. These special mass outbreaks offer a chance to catch Pokemon that are ordinarily difficult to find!
Endure the Whims of Arceus in the Eternal Battle Reverie!
When you go to sleep in your quarters, you can meet Arceus in your dreams and try your hand at a challenge of strength. Your opponents include lots of incredibly strong Pokemon. At times, you’ll battle in inconceivable situations like facing multiple Legendary Pokemon at once. Hone your Pokemon battle skills and see how long of a win streak you can earn in this new challenge.
The Eternal Battle Reverie will become available after completing all missions.
Aim for Greater Heights with Your Pokemon!
Once you’ve trained up your Pokemon well, you can take on new challenges at the training grounds in Jubilife Village. You’ll be able to take your battle skills even further by battling the wardens that you met during your travels or taking on challenging battles with difficult constraints—such as using only a single Pokemon.

All sorts of people will begin to visit the photography studio in Jubilife Village, where you will be able to take pictures with them.
