Niantic moves to combat Pokémon Go raid slump with huge Campfire expansion
Pokémon Go players who are active in the online community already know about Niantic’s social app Campfire, and now its reach is being extended again with its global release. With this expansion, the developers are also launching a new feature that is supposed to make it easier for players to raid locally.
The entire point of Campfire is to make connecting with local communities across Niantic’s library of titles easier than ever by implementing new features directly into the game. Pokémon Go players will now be able to access Campfire’s social features by connecting both apps and opening the in-game map.
