Pokopia Finally Lets You Dive Underwater In A Free Update This August

Pokopia is getting the DLC it deserves in the form of a free update this August that will finally let us go swimming underwater. And, AND, there’s a paid expansion pass on the way that will bring three major updates, the first of which is also arriving in August.

In today’s Nintendo Direct, Ditto trotted up to the edge of the water and dove right in! This August, the new ability Dive will give every Ditto free access to swimming underwater, allowing them to build in the ocean and hang out with water Pokemon friends under the waves. This update has long been expected, given how much building space and how many resources have been clearly visible underwater this entire time, and will certainly help those of us who haven’t been creative enough to suck up the entire ocean for our building projects.

But beyond that, Pokopia is also getting a paid expansion pass. The expansion pass will include three major updates, the first of which is coming in August and adds an entirely new underwater area: Bubbly Basin, along with new a number of new Pokemon specifically from that environment.
