Some Pokemon GO players have started to receive ban notices from Niantic by email.

As of late, it’s been made known that the use of third-party software or apps won’t be tolerated. Niantic is now taking action against folks using these tools. The company considers it to be cheating when one uses “scripts/apps, applications used to falsify your location, emulators, modified or unofficial software, and/or accessing Pokemon GO clients or backends in an unauthorized manner”.

You can see the full email after the break.

Pokemon GO Plus, the upcoming accessory for Pokemon GO, is one of the items on display at Nintendo’s Gamescom booth this year. Get a closer look at it in the video below.

Pokemon GO’s success up to this point is quite well known. However, it’s all put into further perspective with the confirmation that the game has obtained five Guinness World Records. The feats were formally announced after consulting with digital data tracker SuperData.

Pokemon GO secured records in areas of downloads, revenue, and chart positioning. The full details can be found below.

New items have been added to the daily selections in Miitomo. Nintendo mentions that different players will see different offerings each day, so a friend may have access to something before you (and vise versa). There’s also a chance of rare items appearing, so you may want to check back regularly.

When we last heard about Pokemon GO’s revenue milestone, the game was sitting at $250 million. App Annie now believes it “will breeze past $350 million in consumer spending across iOS and Google Play in the coming days.” App Annie VP of marketing and communications Fabien-Pierre Nicolas further adds that “the game is on pace to exceed our $1 billion prediction from early July and surpass any previous mobile game yearly revenues.” Putting that number into perspective, the app could exceed worldwide box-office numbers for Captain America: Civil War, which is 2016’s highest-grossing film thus far.

App Annie’s latest report also goes into user statistics once again. Pokemon GO is the leading game across all demographic segments of iPhone users in the United States, though it’s doing best with the 13–24 segment (top 20 for all apps). As the average player is three times as likely to use Twitch, Steam and Clash Royale, it’s a sign that core players make up a strong segment of the overall demographic.
