"Pokemon GO" Gen 2 may soon be launched as Niantic Labs want to upgrade its augmented reality game that people around the world have gone crazy for since its release in July. Part of the reason for wanting to launch a brand new Gen 2 is the fact that the numbers of players have greatly diminished in the last few months and based on reports, the decline is steady. In fact, in the gaming charts, it has been replaced at No. 1 by other most played games like "Clash of Clans."
According to Daily Mail UK, more than 10 million players already left the game. But despite losing active players, "Pokemon GO" is getting better as Niantic labs continue to update it with patches. It is actually the dwindling number of players that is pushing Niantic to produce something new, so as to keep the game's contents and mechanics always fresh, interesting and competitive. The Japanese game firm has not formally announce the upcoming arrival of "Pokemon GO" Gen 2, but it has been releasing hints that an upgraded version is on the way.
Without any official announcement about "Pokemon GO" Gen 2, gamers started to speculate that it will be rolled out in a few months. Pokemon Go Hub mentioned May 2017 as possible release date for the next generation of the augmented reality game. It is believed that once Gen 2 is released, it will be the biggest update that the game can have, thus avid gamers are excited.
While fans just cannot wait for "Pokemon GO" Gen 2, the hype for it continues to build up and perhaps, this is an early indication that Niantic will succeed in its bid to regain its lead in the world of gaming. Once Niantic Labs launch this major update many game-changing features are expected, like the trainer battles and Pokemon trading.
Such types of additions will surely change the gameplay experience, from unconventional gaming app to more realistic exciting game. Finally, when "Pokemon GO" Gen 2 arrives complete with its new features, there is a good chance that the game will headline the international news once again.
