- Pokemon Go Fest 2024 contributed over $200m to local economies
- That’s in hot spots of Madrid, New York and Sendai!
- The community events have been a major success for Niantic, and even saw a proposal!
Ever since its debut, Pokémon Go has garnered an immense level of devotion from fans of Niantic’s digital creatures across the globe! This dedication has made it a highly popular means of socializing, with large-scale community gatherings attracting crowds to local hotspots. Furthermore, it has also positively impacted local economies.
Indeed, recent findings indicate that the Pokémon Go Fest events organized by Niantic generated approximately $200 million for the local economies of cities where they were held. Cities such as Madrid, New York, and Sendai were among those that benefited from this economic boost.
Surely, Pokémon Go Fest hasn’t lacked unusual tales, with proposals between passionate Pokémon enthusiasts being one example. However, the data recently gathered by Statista provides Niantic with a cause for self-satisfaction, and possibly encourages other cities to consider extending invitations to them?
Going global
As a gamer, I can’t stress enough how significant the financial influence of Pokemon Go has been – it’s not just a game, it’s a major player in shaping big events. It’s always intriguing to see what sparks such a massive response, and this interest can pave the way for official backing or promotion, which in turn fuels even more curiosity around it.
To get a sense of how enthusiastic Pokemon Go players traversed the city during the festivities in Madrid, simply take a peek at Jupiter Hadley’s reports. It’s quite clear that they boosted the sales of ice cream and sodas significantly in the scorching weather.
Could this potentially bring about substantial modifications within the game? Following the Covid-19 pandemic, there was a noticeable uncertainty regarding Niantic’s commitment to fostering the real-life aspects of their popular AR creature collection game. Although they have retained some popular updates to features like Raids, it wouldn’t be unexpected if they use this as an opportunity to re-embrace the real world more aggressively.
