Niantic, the developer of Pokémon GO, announced this week that the game’s head-to-head action is back. Zone Safari will see three editions taking place in October and November in cities in the US and UK, leaving Brazil and other countries out of the picture.
The festivities were supposed to take place in 2020, but the COVID-19 pandemic has halted them. Now the company is doing it slowly, cooperating with authorities and following appropriate standards “implementing precautions such as line management, social distancing protocols and mask-wearing requirements for all team members”.
