Yo-kai Watch Busters - Getto-gumi News!

~ This article may contain spoilers about the ongoing Yo-kai Watch storyline! ~

The December 2015 issue of CoroCoro Comics is here! CoroCoro ( コロコロコミック ) is a monthly manga magazine which serializes many shonen comic book series including Yo-kai Watch and Yo-kai Watch Busters in Japanese. This month’s issue comes packed with Yo-kai Watch Busters Gettogumi ( 妖怪ウォッチバスターズ月兎組 ) extras (called furoku・ふろく) and news about the upcoming free DLC expansion that fans are excited for! The actual DLC expansion will release via Japan’s Nintendo eShop on December 12th, 2015. This is a BIG Happy Holidays for Yo-kai Watch fans!

Because this DLC update for Akanekodan ( 赤猫団 ) and Shiroinutai ( 白犬隊 ) versions is so huge, and because it’s digital download only, CoroCoro gave fans a “mock” game box that compliments the boxes and art of the two versions. As a Yo-kai Watch goods collector this is really exciting, it will look great along side any gamer or toy collector shelf display.

Also included with this issue and box are a Nyankishi arcade game card, a Jibakoma password for Yo-kai Watch PuniPuni, and a pretend B-USApyon “Getto-gumi Members Card.”

The Getto-gumi DLC update will contain and unlock new missions and challenges, finally unlock the special VIP Room (which contains a new gasha machine!) and offer daily VIP patrol missions. We’ll also be introduced to brand new bosses, some playable bosses, and all new yo-kai friends!
