Game developer Niantic has almost confirmed the release of “Pokemon Go,” when it recently posted on its website that Niantic CEO John Hanke will soon be discussing more details about “Pokemon Go” and how they developed the mobile augmented reality game to get would-be trainers into the outdoors.
Niantic has been known for putting something new in the gaming community and “Pokemon Go” will be its latest offering that is expected to shake up the industry yet again.
In fact, the company stated in its website that over the last three years, it has been defining the genre of real world gaming using smartphones and tablets to connect the digital world to the physical world.
It added that its upcoming game “Pokemon Go” ups the challenge of the real world gaming design, taking the beloved franchise and setting its hundreds of brightly-colored monsters loose across the globe, adding a new Bluetooth wearable device to the mix that was created by Nintendo.
“Pokemon Go” is a real-world, real-time game, wherein players can capture Pokemons in the outdoors using an optional wearable device called the “Pokemon Go Plus.” The device can be worn on the wrist and players will be able to use it to capture Pokemons.
Upon its official release, “Pokemon Go” will be downloadable from the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store for free.
