Gamers welcomed the news on the Chinese mainland, where the wildly popular monster-hunting mobile game Pokemon Go has been banned since 2017.

— SCMP

Tencent said the two companies had agreed to work together to develop the game, but it did not give further details or a timeline in a statement on its Weibo microblog account on Monday. Social media users also expressed surprise at Tencent’s alliance with the Japanese company after the Chinese firm’s augmented reality game released in April,. Both games involve capturing monsters and prizes using a smartphone while exploring a real-world location. The Tencent game soon became popular, shooting to the top of China’s free download chart that month, according to mobile app analysis platform Sensor Tower.
