It's been awhile since we last saw a "Digimon" release. But right now, Bandai Namco will be delivering a new yet classic "Digimon World" experience with the upcoming "Digimon World: Next Order." Along with new information about the game mentioned in a press release, there are also details about a free DLC that will come post-release as well.

Bandai Namco Entertainment Europe has issued a press release for "Digimon World: Next Order" that revealed an all-new dungeon that was not included in the original PS Vita release set after the regualr story mode. The dungeon, however, isn't a walk in the park as players combat against powerful legendary Digimon.

The official information from Bandai Namco has been laid out here (thanks to Gematsu):

Armageddemon

Armageddemon is a powerful Mega form Digimon that you will discover during a brand-new dungeon in the Dimensional District. Once you complete Story Mode, you will have to defeat him to save the Digital World.

Meicoomon and Maycrackmon

Meicoomon and Maycrackmon, both from Digimon Adventure Tri., are also joining the Digital World for new adventures.

Network Battles

Players can experience Network Battles thanks to the Dimensional Box at Jijimon's house. Face other players in a retro atmosphere and gain points from your fights to unlock different kinds of rewards.

Free Post-Launch DLC

After the release of the game, players will be able to enjoy new content thanks to free downloadable content. Piedmon, Myotismon, and the fearful Boltboutamon are all joining during a new, mysterious event. Several other events, involving different Digimon such as Piedmon, Tukaimon, or Sorcermon, will also be available.

"Digimon World: Next Order" is slated for release for PlayStation 4 in Europe on Jan. 27 and North America will be getting its version on Jan. 31. Japan, on the other hand, will get the "Digimon World: Next Order International Edition" on Feb. 26.
