Niantic is trying to ease Pokemon Go players into post-pandemic life by adding exploration bonuses to the popular augmented reality title.
As a result, Niantic wants to encourage Pokemon Go players to once again slip on their walking shoes by implementing exploration bonuses that incentivize outdoor play.
As we return to the outside world again, these changes are aimed at restoring the focus of Pokemon Go on movement and exploration in the real world.
The company intends to begin testing its exploration bonuses in the United States and New Zealand starting in July.
