    • In 2024, Niantic, the developer behind Pokemon GO, will revolutionise the game with a groundbreaking plan that integrates artificial intelligence (AI) and augmented reality (AR) technology.
    • The game developer aims to make Pokemon in the game appear more lifelike and responsive to the real-world environment.
    • However, such vision raised concerns from gamers including pricing and game-play implementations.

    Niantic plans to reset Pokemon GO with a groundbreaking blueprint that integrates artificial intelligence (AI) and augmented reality (AR) technology. The game developer aims to make Pokemon characters appear more lifelike and responsive to the real-world environment.

    While AR in Pokemon GO has had its limitations, Niantic’s vision for the future promises to provide a more realistic and interactive connection between the virtual Pokemon and the real world.

    2024 as a breakthrough year

    In a recent interview with the BBC, John Hanke, the creator of Pokemon GO, shared his vision for the game’s future. He believes 2024 will be a “breakthrough year” for the popular mobile app, and this optimism stems from a plan to integrate AR and AI technologies like never before.

    For most players, Pokemon GO’s augmented reality features have primarily revolved around the snapshot feature, where you can capture Pokemon in the real world using your device’s camera. While this has been a fun addition, there have always been limitations to the extent to which Pokemon feel connected to the actual environment.

    Niantic is all set to change that by using AI technology to embed Pokemon into the real world. The intergrations will allow Pokemon characters to react to real environmental elements in a more realistic manner. Imagine your favorite pocket monsters reacting to cars passing by.

    Becoming the very best but at what cost?

    This ambitious project could be a game-changer for Pokemon GO. The essence of the game is the feeling of embarking on a real-life Pokemon adventure. The ability to witness Pokemon behaving naturally in your surroundings using AR technology is likely to reel in more enthusiasts.

    Many Pokemon GO players have voiced their concerns about various issues, including pricing, rewards, updates, and the implementation of features like Party Play. While the AR technology holds great promise, such promises could be derailed if the game developers fail to heed gamer concerns.
