On Switch, Square Enix is creating special DLC for I Am Setsuna. A Temporal Battle Arena is planned for the RPG where players can enjoy battles against other players parties.

I Am Setsuna’s Japanese website now confirms that the DLC is coming in April. It will be distributed for free.

The Temporal Battle Arena can be accessed by progressing through the main story and talking to a character that appears on a specific map. It will be possible for players to upload battle data (a maximum of three) for others to download. Data can be downloaded either randomly or with a specific code.

By winning a match, you can randomly obtain the spritnite stones held by your opponent. Equipment determines the result of the battle.

Niantic CEO John Hanke previously indicated that Pokemon GO’s lore would be expanded in the coming months. However, in an interview with Polygon, senior product manager Tatsuo Nomura mentioned that it isn’t a top priority currently. That’s simply because Niantic is “a very small team and we can only do so much at once.”

Nomura added:

“It’s not like we’re forgetting [about the characters], but it’s just resource-wise, what we are doing next … Do we do multiplayer and gen two versus putting out more narrative?. So far, it’s not being our focus, but we are not leaving it behind. I personally still want to think a lot more stories behind them and narratives.”

Niantic is currently focusing on building new functionality of Pokemon GO. This includes trading as well as other multiplayer features.
