Pokémon Legends: Z-A released in October, and it's receiving a DLC expansion this week. The Mega Dimension DLC will release Wednesday, Dec. 10.

The Mega Dimension DLC brings with it new NPCs, Mega Evolutions, and more. Your trainer and their fellow Team MZ members will work with newcomer Ansha and her Pokémon Hoopa to investigate mysterious distortions popping up around Lumiose. You'll travel through those distortions to Hyperspace Lumiose, full of Pokémon new to Pokémon Legends: Z-A and more regional variants, like Galarian Mr. Mime. Pokémon are extremely strong in Hyperspace Lumiose, and you'll have to use special donuts to increase your Pokémon's level past level 100 to successfully battle them. Like the free Diancie and Mewtwo side missions, the Mega Dimension DLC is only available after you've beaten the main story.

Here's when Mega Dimension will release in your time zone.

Nintendo and The Pokémon Company haven't officially stated when Mega Dimension will release.

5 p.m. PDT on Tues. Dec. 9 for the west coast of North America
