Nintendo has recently revealed that its Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire remake for the 3DS will contain a brand new episode and 14 new legendary pokemons to catch. Nintendo had announced earlier that the game will feature a lot of new content and won’t just be a simple remake so returning players are bound get some kicks out of the game. The graphics of the game have been upgraded as well. The new episode dubbed ‘Delta Episode” will feature brand new characters and new battles.

According to a recent post by Nintendo, the Delta Episode takes place in the Hoenn region and involves saving the region from an oncoming asteroid...with your pokemon of course. You will get to explore the history of the Hoenn region and will be able to travel back in time to unearth ther mysteries of the “Mega Evolution”. A new character named Zinnia will be introduced in this episode as well. There are no details on exactly how long the episode will be though but it does sound like it will be a lot of fun to play through.

The game will also feature new Legendary pokemons, 14 to be exact. These include Entei, Suicune, Mesprit, Raikou, Uxie, Cobalion, Azelf, Terrakion, Tornadus, Thunderus, Virizon, Landorus, Cresselia and Heatran. Legendary pokemons are extremely rare, cannot be bred and must be obtained by catching them ingame or via a special event. These legendary pokemon in particular can only be found in ‘Mirage spots’ which are black misty fogs scattered throughout the map. Ther\se pokemon will also hold valuable items so thats even more incentive to find and catch these little critters. The pokemon will vary depending on which version of the game you’re playing.

Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire will be available for purchase on November 21st in North America and Australia and November 28 for Europe.
