If you’re one of the remaining people who is still playingPokémon Gothen good news! Your loyalty is soon going to be awarded with a nice update. It’ll add a story and a very special LegendaryPokémon: Mew.
Pokémon Go is going to get storylines, quests and Mew
Niantichas announced thatPokémon Gois soon going to receive quests and storylines. Such an addition may provide people with more of an incentive to keep playing.Pokémon Go’s Professor Willow will feature in the story-driven quests.
Here’s an explanation about how the update will work fromNiantic:
“Trainers will begin receiving research tasks later this week, adding new activities and challenges that can be completed for in-game rewards. Some of these rewards will lead Trainers to access unique storylines that include discovering the mystery behind the Mythical Pokémon Mew.
Pokémon GO’s new research feature will provide Trainers with unique activities called Field Research and Special Research. Field Research tasks can be collected by spinning nearby PokéStops, and they include a wide range of Pokémon-related activities. Special Research tasks are story-driven activities that may be requested by Professor Willow himself, and they will unfold as the Trainer completes more objectives.” - Niantic
Field Research can be done multiple times per day, with some tasks offering increasing complexity. According toNiantic, collecting seven stamps may be the key to encountering legendary monsters. My guess is that you’ll need to get seven stamps in order to find Mew. It’ll make a change from Raid battles.
What are your thoughts regarding this update? If you’re a lapsed player, will it convince you to give the game another go or is it too little, too late? Please comment below and let us know.
