More Pokmon GO Invites Emailed to U.S. Testers

Pokémon GO - NEW GAME-CHANGING UPDATE LEAKED: New Evolution Method, Candies, Stardust & New Items!

Pokmon GO developer Niantic Labs began distributing a second wave of email invites to eligible field testers in the United States yesterday.

The new batch of invitations didnt come without a small hiccup, however. Yesterday evening, a Nintendo News reader said, I got in, but now Im having issues getting my Google Play app to realize that I should be able to access the beta.

Unfortunately, Niantics email had a small typo in the URL link that prevented users from accessing the Pokmon GO field test app. Specifically, theres an extra letter in the link, as seen here:

• https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.nianticlabsc.pokemongo/join (incorrect)
• https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.nianticlabs.pokemongo/join (correct)

Simply deleting the c after nianticlabs will result in a working link. However, a few of Nintendo Newss Twitter followers (thanks, Postman, Jason and Ricky V) told us this morning that Niantic re-sent the email with the corrected URL.

If youve been chosen as one of the lucky field test participants, how are you enjoying Pokmon GO thus far? Feel free to let us know in the comments section below or on our social media channels.

The final version of Pokmon GO is still set to arrive onAndroid and iOS devices in 2016.

Next Pokmon GO news promised in "mid-October"

Discover Pokémon in the Real World with Pokémon GO!

The Pokmon Company International, Nintendo and Niantic raised eyebrows when Pokmon GO was announced. Their joint venture is to produce an augmented reality title for iOS and Android, promising to take your Pokmon journey into the wide world through location-based integration.

That will encourage players to take their adventure outdoors for the first time, but Slate raised concerns about interaction with malicious players, the dangers that Pokmon GO will know your location, and that data gathered could potentially be sold on to third parties.

Those are understandable worries for parents in particular. But, in reaching out to Niantic to comment on how they were being taken into consideration, the company revealed that more information would be shared in mid-October.

Were not quite ready to talk in more depth about Pokmon GO than what was revealed in the announcement press release and assets, Niantics representative Evan Dexter explained. Come mid-October well be able to start going into more depth about our plans for the game, and about our plans for real world gaming overall.

Were also still yet to hear about Nintendos first mobile title that was said to be releasing this year, produced as part of their business and capital alliance with DeNA.

Pokmon GO will be available for download at no charge on the App Store and Google Play in 2016.
