Nintendo is planning to bring popular video game series Pokemon into the real world, using augmented reality technology. With this game, Pokemon masters can catch, train and battle their monsters in real locations.
Pokemon Go is a free app that’ll be out next year and seems to work just like Ingress, as you’re directed towards locations in the real world to hunt for pokémon. The phone superimposes them onto your view of the local park, or wherever you are, and you can then try to catch them as you would in the games.
Junichi Masuda, director of the handheld Pokemon games at game studio Game Freak, is contributing to the project, which is being developed by Nintendo, The Pokemon Company, and former internal Google team Niantic.
The Pokemon franchise began in 1996 with the original Game Boy games, since selling 260 million copies worldwide, and has since expanded to include trading cards, films, toys and comics.
