Each downloadable content pack will add two new dungeons (including one with brand-new story and voice acting), multiple new cards, new random events, and a new Muse. Players will be able to access this content after progressing partway through the main story.
“The World of Gal Guardians Servants of the Dark” downloadable content will release on February 19, and “The World of the Blaster Master Zero Series” downloadable content comes on March 12. Also launching on February 19 for $9.99, the Expansion Pass will grant players access to these downloadable content immediately upon their respective releases, plus a new Neon card for purchasing.
