Pokémon Go has sold to Scopely as Niantic shifts focus to geospatial AI
It's a done deal
Last month we learned that the Pokémon Go developer, Niantic, was on the verge of selling its gaming catalog to Scopley, a Saudi-owned entertainment company headquartered in California with a penchant for publishing some of the greediest games on the Play Store. Understandably, the potential sale had fans worried, and today both Niantic and Scoppley have confirmed the acquisition of Pokémon Go, Monster Hunter Now, and Pikmin Bloom, along with their respective teams.
