Niantic already has its eyes focused on 2026, Pokémon Go’s 10th anniversary
Pokémon Go celebrated its seventh anniversary in July and is already forging ahead into new generations of content but Niantic is looking as far as 10 years ahead when considering the future of its biggest title.
It isn’t uncommon for developers to plan things out well in advance when working on a game, especially if it has a live service element that will extend the title’s life for years after release. According to Pokémon Go director Michael Steranka that extends out to at least 2026.
