Pokémon Go announces a far-reaching update with new features, avatars, graphics, and more. After eight years out in the wild, Pokémon Go is introducing a wealth of fresh features, seasons, events, and regions as part of a wide update. For ongoing players of the AR game, this offers enough new content to last a fair long while.
