Niantic's Pokemon GO can no longer be stopped as it heads towards the market within the year, and with only so much to give the fans, the stakes seem to be stacking up. Will the game fare as expected, or will it be too much of a shot for fans to want to give a try?
As noted by Neuro Gadget, Pokemon GO is Niantic and The Pokemon Company's latest promise of giving a whole new experience to the long-time Pokemon franchise fans. Simply put, gamers are to engage in an augmented reality system that allows them to search for Pokemon fused with the real world in order to get the real feel of searching the human world for Pokemon to collect.
Reported by Christian Today, Niantic makes it a point that the game itself will be free, but fans are to prepare for the device that will be launched alongside the game which may come at a price, namely the Pokemon GO Plus as Nintendo calls it. The particular item enables players to amplify the gaming experience through LEDs and even permitting the younger players to play the game even without a mobile phone in hand.
This feature proves to work well for the young gamers who are to head to school and cannot use their mobile devices, as they will still be able to capture creatures along the way and preview once they get home.
As per PC Advisor, Niantic Founder John Hanke aims to make the feel of the game more dynamic with a diversity of Pokemon all over the globe. He was quoted, "For the first time, Pokémon will roam free in the real world. Pokémon GO will allow players to capture Pokémon who inhabit parks, shopping areas, sidewalks and the countryside all around the world "Imagine discovering a Squirtle hiding along the waterfront in San Francisco, a Bulbasaur at Shinjuku Station or a Pikachu beneath the Eiffel Tower."
Pokemon GO was originally scheduled for release by February 27th of the year but is expected to launch around June or mid of the year. Keep posted for more updates on the official unleashing of the game to the public in the near future.
