Yesterday at Apple's keynote, Niantic Labs, the company guilty that Pokémon Go has already become a mass success, took the stage to show wearable accessory Pokémon GO Plus that will allow you to perform some typical actions of the app for mobile devices that has been downloaded by 500 million in the Google Play Store.
That figure of 500 million downloads In the Android app and video game store, it is a milestone and is usually reached by some apps that take years to do so. We can better understand the success of this video game and how Nintendo prepares the launch of that wearable device Pokémon GO Plus that will be on the street for purchase on September 16
The popularity of this video game is such that even Google has allowed itself the luxury of marking it as an activity in Maps to "Catching Pokémons" so you can indicate it in your timeline.
Niantic has prepared a couple of very interesting news, including the wearable device Pokémon GO Plus and the new Buddy Update that will allow you to use a Pokémon as a pet. The wearable device is the most anticipated for Pokémon GO, since it has some characteristics that will allow us to leave the smartphone in our pocket for certain actions.
With the Plus on your wrist you will receive vibrations and a notification LED will light up when you are near a Poké stop and you can collect all the targets without having to take your phone out of your pocket. The same will happen when a Pokémon appears, since with the Plus you can hunt it with a simple click. While this device will not offer the augmented reality experience, it may come in handy for battery savings.
Niantic has stated that Pokémon GO Plus will be available September 16 in most countries.
