Koei Tecmo has released a new update for Monster Rancher on Switch and mobile devices in Japan.

The update adds new monsters, a “Participatory Tournament Mode”, additional music, save slots, and more. You can check out the full details below, as translated via Gematsu:

Save Slot Added

One free manual save slot has been added. In addition to the two free save slots, you can purchase up to 12 additional save slots for 120 yen each, or the full 12-pack for 980 yen.

Battle Mode: 1P Entry Method Changed

While you were previously only able to select your own monster, now you can select from monsters uploaded by other players, making battles and tournaments between players easier.

Player participatory tournaments will be held in the future. Players will be able to participate by simply registering a monster that meet the tournament’s conditions, and battles will play out automatically without instruction from breeders.

Added music data for CD titles released between September 29, 2019 and February 1, 2020, and for Switch physical edition titles released between September 2019 and January 2020. (The latter data is exclusively for the Switch version.)
