Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Mobile, News | 1 Comment
Pokemon GO appears to be getting daily quests, based on new information players have found through data mining.
After poking through the app’s latest update, Niantic is planning three types of quests. These include “First Catch of The Day” as well as “First PokeStop of the Day”.
At the moment, it’s unclear what rewards daily quests will provide, though code references incubators. Also, while we don’t know when this feature is going live, it seems that Niantic can easily turn it on at any point.
We’ll let you know when we hear anything official about daily quests in Pokemon GO.
