Niantic, the creators of popular AR mobile games Pokemon GO, Pikmin Bloom, and more have announced their next project. Peridot is a virtual pet mobile game that lets you care for, raise, and breed one-of-a-kind creatures.
Here’s what we know so far about the game:
You can see some examples of how Peridot will look on mobile devices below. The screens show activities like going on daily walks, uncovering hidden treasures around the world, and playing with your unique Peridot pal.
If it’s anything like Pokemon GO and Pikmin Bloom, we know that the game will utilize AR (alternate reality) features to place the creatures in real-world settings and use walking in real life as the main mechanic.
So far, we know that Peridot will be entering a soft launch testing phase in select markets pretty soon. You can sign up to be notified when the game is available in your area by visiting the game’s official website right here.
