Bandai Namco, a pillar in Japanese gaming and publisher of renowned RPGs, has officially confirmed a major expansion for Digimon Story: Time Stranger, to be released across multiple platforms.
The announcement, made during Digimon Con 2026, highlights continued support for the monster-taming RPG as it prepares to arrive on the Nintendo Switch and the anticipated Switch 2 consoles this July. Digimon Story: Time Stranger originally launched to strong sales and positive reception among fans of the franchise and the larger RPG community.
Developed by Bandai Namco, the game combines strategic turn-based battles, digital monster collection, and immersive storytelling.
Its success has paved the way for ongoing post-launch content, including the previously released "additional Digimon & Episode Pack" available on other gaming systems. During Digimon Con 2026, Bandai Namco turned heads with an official social media announcement: "Major DLC production for Digimon Story: Time Stranger has been confirmed and is scheduled for release in 2027.
We sincerely thank everyone who has supported the game, making this new content possible.
More information regarding the DLC's content will be shared in the future." While no further details about the DLC's features or storyline have been provided, the announcement underscores Bandai Namco's commitment to enriching the Digimon franchise and engaging its passionate community.
The upcoming expansion will follow the earlier DLC, which has already introduced new Digimon and episodes for players to enjoy. Digimon Story: Time Stranger is set to launch on both the Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 this July, with Bandai Namco confirming a complimentary Switch 2 upgrade for purchasers of the original Switch version.
This approach mirrors the publisher's strategy with other major releases, such as the recently detailed Dragon Ball Z: Sparking! ZERO, where cross-generational upgrades have been welcomed by fans. With the simultaneous launch across both Nintendo Switch and hardware successor Switch 2, Bandai Namco is ensuring that Digimon fans on all platforms will experience the latest adventure in the Digimon universe without barriers.
As the game prepares for its debut and future expansion, stay tuned for further updates on Digimon Story: Time Stranger, upcoming DLC details, and more direct news from Bandai Namco and future Nintendo Direct events.
