When the coronavirus pandemic exploded last year, Niantic implemented a number of changes in Pokemon GO given how many people were quarantining. The goal was to let players experience the mobile title more easily while staying at home. Now, however, Niantic is looking to implement a few changes.
Pokemon GO will be adding new exploration bonuses that make it more rewarding to play outside “over the next several months”, removing/changing some bonuses introduced last year, and keeping a few ones. Testing will take place in the US and New Zealand starting at the end of July before rolling out to other regions.
