In addition to this, all the customers must be careful while making the purchase. They must order the correct Expansion Pass for the current version of the game. The Pokémon Shield Expansion Pass is only compatible with Pokémon Shield, while the Pokémon Sword Expansion Pass will only work along with Pokémon Sword. Fans should also take a note that Nintendo has announced on its official website that a physical premium edition of Pokémon Sword and Shield is coming in the future. It will include all DLC on a cartridge. It will go on sale on November 6; hence, Pokemon players will have to wait a little longer after the Crown Tundra’s release, if they wish to purchase the package physically.
