The game Pokemon Go is making some temporary changes to its schedule so players can play from home and are discouraged from going out and putting their health at risk due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The developer of Niantic he told Polygon that gives priority to updates on Pokemon GO, with which trainers will be able to see more monsters without having to walk too far from home.
Incubators, which require players to collect a certain number of steps before an egg hatches, will work with half the number of steps. PokeStops will also release gifts more often than usual. Incense packs, which produce most monsters, will also be reduced by 99% and will last one hour when active.
The developer reported that all these changes are running normally with the latest update. The game Pokemon Go first started in 2016, and was advertised as encouraging players to come off their couch or desk and walk out long distances.
