Niantic, the developer of the popular game Pokemon Go, has announced a collaboration with the retail giant Walmart in the United States. This partnership will result in an increase in the number of PokeStop signs and Gyms within Walmart Supercenter locations across the country, offering players more activities to engage in when visiting Walmart.
According to Niantic, 90% of the American population resides within a 10-mile radius of a Walmart location. By adding PokeStop signs, Walmart will transform into a hotspot for players to come together and catch Pokemon.
In addition, Pokemon Go has introduced gift card options for exchanging into PokeCoins within the game for the first time (previously only available for purchase digitally), and these gift cards will be exclusively sold at Walmart stores.
TLDR: Niantic partners with Walmart to enhance Pokemon Go gameplay with more PokeStops and Gyms at Walmart locations, while also introducing gift card options for PokeCoins exclusively at Walmart stores.
