Pokemon Go Launches In The UK

Several "Pokemon GO" players have been using cheats and tricks despite Niantic's efforts to make the game fair for everyone. Because of this, new reports are claiming that the game company has launched another ban recently.

Rumors have it that Niantic has cheaters are the people responsible for all the server glitches that have to keep on happening over and over again lately. According to insiders, the "Pokemon GO" game has been hanging for several times, Otakukart reported.

Aside from that, it has been known that a bug allows "Pokemon GO" cheaters to manipulate the game despite Niantic's strict security. Among these illegal activities include falsifying geographical locations by using third-party apps.

"Bots are automated programs that play the game on their own, often without human interaction. Spoofers use GPS spoofing methods to teleport around the area," Otakukart added on. "There are no reports that confirm or even mention that any GPS spoofers were banned, which is a big disappointment."

This is not the very first time that Niantic has learned about some "Pokemon GO" players using tricks and cheats to forge Bot and GPS. Such tricks have helped a number of gamers get high scores and achieve milestones in the game but it also caused havoc in the entire community.

Because of this, Niantic has decided to release another update to stop cheaters from taking advantage. Right now, nest migration is being launched to change and track the locations and records of the "Pokemon GO" players, The Silph Road reported.

Aside from that, the latest "Pokemon GO" update is also expected to bring other bug fixes and new events for players to enjoy. Moreover, some regions are also said to be unlocked in the upcoming worldwide update.

"Pokemon GO" players can expect the update to happen in the coming days. Stay tuned to Korea Portal for more "Pokemon GO" news and updates.
