More updates are on the way for Pokkén Tournament DX! According to Gematsu, an upcoming patch to the Pokémon fighter will add some new features to the game, including 3v3 online team battles and a new training recording feature.

The full list of additions and updates includes the following:

  • Online Team Battles – Team Battles will be available to play with friends online. Pick three Pokémon each and head into battle to enjoy heated fights with other players.
  • Official Groups in Group Match – Official groups from Pokkén Tournament DX will be open in the Group Match online battle mode. Coming soon after the update, there will be official Group Matches where players can battle to receive new special titles.
  • Record Pokemon Movements – In Practice Mode’s Free Training, a new function to record Pokemon movements in battle will be added. You’ll be able to control the opposing Pokemon and record its movements so you can play them back when you’re training to help improve your skills.
  • Enhanced Experience – Several other adjustments are in development which will help to improve gameplay.

Despite being a re-release of a Wii U title, it’s great to see Pokkén Tournament DX receiving post-launch balance updates, and even new features. Here’s to hoping the game still has a long life ahead of it yet.
