■ Downloadable Content “plus Pack”

Part 1 adds Koppa as a playable character, and Part 2 adds Asuka.

In the Sacred Tree mode, you’ll be able to select a total of two new playable characters. Part 1 features Koppa the Talking Ferret. Although Koppa cannot inflict damage with attacks, he moves at double speed. Since Koppa cannot equip any gear, you’ll advance through the dungeon using special abilities like Burrow and Frantic Fart, which consume Fullness. In Part 2, you’ll get Asuka. Additional details to be announced.

Koppa

A ferret who travels together with Shiren. He is a “talking ferret” that understands human language. *Koppa can be used in the Sacred Tree trials after unlocking Tatsumi Shiren and progressing through the story.

Asuka

She is a wandering swordswoman who is old friends with Shiren and Koppa. She has come to Serpentcoil Island for a specific reason and is reunited with them.

10 New Dungeons

There will be a total of 10 new dungeons: five in Part 1 and five in Part 2. In Part 1 of the “plus Pack,” you’ll find dungeons such as Forest of Frugality, where your items are swapped with each floor you move to, and Peachy Trap Domain, where utilizing traps and transforming into monsters is essential. In Part 2 of the “plus Pack,” we’ll introduce a high-difficulty dungeon called Soul of Serpentcoil Island, which surpasses the game’s most difficult dungeon, Heart of Serpentcoil Island.

“plus Pack” MSRP: $14.99 (includes both Part 1 and Part 2; Part 1 and Part 2 cannot be purchased individually).
*Main game is required to play the “plus Pack” season pass paid downloadable content.
