Ingress, the get-you-off-your-sofa mobile phone game made by Pokémon Go developer Niantic, is getting an official anime series.
Netflix is working with the Japan-based Fuji TV to broadcast the show this October, Variety reported. It’s the same month the game’s reworked Ingress Prime version will also arrive.
Ingress launched years before Pokémon Go to a limited but dedicated community of players which are still playing now more than five years on. If anything, the subsequent launch of Pokémon Go has only boosted Ingress’ fame.
