Since the Movement Control Order will go on until 28 April (for now), Niantic is figuring out more ways to allow Pokemon Go players to stay at home and play. In this latest update, you will be able to access Raid Battles, receive Field Research bonus without PokeStop, and many more! Read on below on what you can do now in Pokemon Go.

Although games like Pokemon Go and Harry Potter: Wizards Unite were designed for people to get out and exercise, this isn't possible when we're all told to stay at home. Niantic had to rethink how its games can work if you're not able to walk long distances and to actual locations. With that line of thought, the company will implement some new measures for those stuck at home.

With the on-going control order period in Malaysia, Pokemon Go fans have been stuck at home ever since and Niantic have been providing them ways to play the game indoors. Today, there is a new update from the company giving players better gaming experience which includes Gift changes, Pokemon Catch bonuses and a new rotating 1 Pokecoin bundle. Here's how each mechanic works.

For long-time fans of Pokemon GO, rejoice, for you will soon be able to battle other players in the game. Niantic first announced that the Go Battle League mode last year and confirmed that we will have it in 2020. The company has begun to slowly release the feature in different regions before it hit a snag.

Hear ye, hear ye! The makers of Pokemon Go, Niantic, has finally released its latest mobile game app, Harry Potter: Wizards Unite in Malaysia. Previously, only the USA and UK were able to access it but that was just the first wave, as it's been rolling out slowly globally. The game app is free to download at your Google Play Store and Apple App Store. 

Hey gamers! The Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales have just passed and I’m actually feeling my wallet to be a little lighter (or in case, empty, as I wait for my next paycheck to drop in). Oh well, I’m sure our tears would dry (temporarily) when our ordered packages come in or the intro scene of our just purchased games play on our screens. Unless you purchased Fallout 76. Then there’s no joy for you for sure.  As for me, I’m just smiling (and tearing up a little) whenever I lay my eyes on the Nvidia RTX 2070 GPU I just purchased. #PCmasterrrace!

Hello Pokémon Go trainers, how's your level going? Although many players have left the game already, but there are still some who are still playing it. Anyway, Pokémon Go developer, Niantic is reportedly bringing some update patches to the game, they will make friendly gym training easier and giving a bonus to catch rare Pokémon easier.
