Pokémon GO players are waiting for news after a year hitting the streets to hunt Pokémon and collect PokeStops. And the wait comes to an end. After rumors about an upcoming event, from Niantic they confirm the information and expand it. To celebrate a whole year of Pokémon GO there will not only be a virtual event to get certain beings, there will also be an official and real event It will be the first of its kind organized by Pokémon GO and not by fans, and it promises to be epic.
Pokémon GO Fest Chicago
The bad news is that the event will take place in Chicago, United States It will be on July 22, and it is necessary to purchase tickets in advance to be able to participate. They do not report if there will be any kind of special activity, but everything indicates that the next functions that are about to arrive in the game will be enjoyed in the company of other trainers. Something we talk about below. It is to be expected that there will be activities and all kinds of entertainment as in any self-respecting summer festival.
They also inform about the different events that will take place in Europe between the months of June and September in certain shopping centers. Some time ago, Pokémon GO and Unibail-Rodamco reached an agreement to host pokéstops and special events in their large stores.Something similar will happen in Japan with a special Pikachu event to be announced soon.
Solstice Event
To celebrate the summer and the birthday of Pokémon GO there are also news for the rest of the players. A special event will begin next June 13 to be able to easier to catch fire-type and ice-type Pokémon They will also offer extra experience points in the throwing pokéballs, as long as it hits the first time. And there will be discounts on Lucky Eggs to give you that push you need to level up as a Trainer.
Collaborative news
But the most interesting thing about the information that Niantic has provided is that there will be a major update shortly. Their press release states that there will be “a new update focused on collaborative party play features that will help you play Pokémon GO in fun new ways”.Something that makes us think of the fights between trainers, although it could also be some other type of experience for several players at the same time. Of course, in exchange the Pokémon gyms will be deactivated for a short period of time.
Will the expected news arrive to fight between coaches? Will the gym system be corrected so that anyone can participate? For now we will have to wait until June 13th to enjoy the new event From then on, the Pokémon GO update will be imminent.
