Pokémon Go Is Coming To Apple Watch With Focused Features
Pokémon Go is getting an Apple Watch-focused update later this year that will make many of the game functions playable on the watch face.
Pokémon Go features that you will be able to use with Apple Watch include the ability to see how much distance you need to hatch an egg, showing off what you hatched when you hatch it, seeing your 'Nearby' list, and getting an alert when a Pokémon appears for catching. You will also be able to access Pokéstops and when you conclude a play session, you will get a summary of progress.
Pokémon Go Plus, which shares some of the features that the Apple Watch will offer, is still planned for release later this month. the Apple Watch Pokémon go update will be available before the end of the year.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
