The Pokemon Go hype revealed to be declining as the game shed more than 10 million users around the world by the end of the month. The augmented-reality game sported a total of over 40 million daily users when the company released the app and produced a massive frenzy of gamers going out to 'catch them all.'
The excitement Pokemon Go produced attracted a lot of fans of the franchise and 'just curious' people alike to try out the new trendsetter. It is definitely hard for Niantic to keep these people with different backgrounds and purpose for playing, whether hard-core or normal gaming, while continuously upgrading the game which frequently caused crashing of the app and frustrations for the players.
Pokemon Go now has a total of 30 million daily users, as reported by The Verge, which also provided a tabulated data of the decrease of players in the previous and following months. It showed the slow decline of users playing the game for the succeeding part of 2016.
Still, 30 million users is not exactly a loss for the franchise since Pokemon Go is still the most played app at the moment. The platform Niantic introduced to the public is also a start for future augmented reality games to build up and stretch the technology for further improvement. With Niantic having the upper hand on their current celebrated status, the company is keeping its users entertained by incessantly providing additional features including the new appraisal feature and the addition of more interesting Pokemons.
The hype that Pokemon Go caused will understandably be lowered, as all hype goes, but will still retain its right to stay in the gaming industry, as reported by Forbes.
