'Pokémon GO' Update: Daily Quests Coming Soon? Here's What We Know So Far
J RoseIt looks like a new daily quest feature will be added to the augmented reality mobile game "Pokémon GO" soon.
Following its successful Halloween Event which runs until Nov. 1, Niantic Labs has something else planned for the game. The folks at the Pokémon GO Hub has discovered the daily quest feature hidden in the game's metadata.
"We've datamined the hex code behind the 0.43.3 version of the global-metadata.dat dump," Pokémon GO Hub wrote on their site. "We have an exciting discovery to share: daily quests are coming to 'Pokémon GO' and they look amazing!"
The said daily quest feature will include three types of quests, according to the codes below:
QuestType
.QUEST_UNKNOWN_TYPE
.QUEST_FIRST_CATCH_OF_THE_DAY
.QUEST_FIRST_POKESTOP_OF_THE_DAY.
The "First Catch of the Day" quest might involve a reward for the first Pokémon of a particular type to be caught within the day, while "First Pokéstop of the Day," as the title implies, may give extra goodies for registering your first Pokéstop.
The site also said that the quests may reward players with incubators, although this is a speculation at this point.
Between the recent Halloween Event and this feature, it looks like more and more people will be getting back into the game soon. The Halloween event was met with positive response from the community, with some thanking Niantic Labs for doing a complete turnaround despite all the issues about tracking among other things.
"It's crazy to think that I was watching this sub literally catch on fire with all the hate and salt at Niantic," Redditor zslayer89 said. "I'm not saying the anger wasn't deserved, what with the lack luster updates but the announcement of a Halloween event, and it's sudden activation have turned this sub's frown upside down."
Fans are now hoping that the Halloween event is a start of many more events to come for "Pokémon GO," and a sign of more exciting contents in the future.
