It's been less than a year since Pokemon Go took the world by storm. Niantic is planning some events, both in-game and real-world, for the upcoming anniversary of the game's release.
Pokemon Go Fest will be hosted in Chicago's Grant Park on July 22. There will be all sorts of Pokemon themed activities to take part in with your fellow trainers.
European players won't miss out though, as there will be events from June through September in partnership with Unibail-Rodamco shopping centers.
Of course, Japan is getting involved too, with a "Pikachu Outbreak" event in Yokohama, where visitors are promised a "unique Pokemon Go experience."
As for the actual game, the Solstice Event will run from June 13 until June 20, and it appears to be catering to players in both northern and southern hemispheres. Fire and Ice type Pokemon encounter rates will be increased, and you'll get extra XP for Curveballs, Nice Throws, Great Throws, Excellent Throws, and more. In addition, Lucky Eggs will be 50 percent off in the game shop.
Pokemon Go has been downloaded 750 million times during its first year, and it still has 65 million active players. Legendary Pokemon and player versus player interactions are soon coming to the game.
