Nintendo's Pokemon Go breaks the internet; here's how to get the game

Pokemon Go, has taken the world by a storm and all thanks to Nintendo for breaking the internet. Pokemon Go is one of the most popular topic (at least in the US and Australia) on the internet with an addictive game that uses augmented reality to an extent. The game seems to be addictive and is presently the hottest topic on Google today.

As for now, the official game is only available on Android and in US, Australia and New Zealand. The Nintendo game has been downloaded on more than 5% of all Android smartphones in the US alone, just days after the official launch. Official reports state that Pokemon Go was already installed on more US Android smartphones than Tinder.

Pokemon Go has not only caught the attention for installation—the game is also said to be addictive and the engagement of the users have reportedly believed to be unbelievably high. The engagement is said to be as high as Twitter. As for the engagement time, the average is around 43 minutes and 23 seconds, which is higher than WhatsApp, Snapchat, Messenger and even Snapchat. A report on the said trend can be found on Similar Web.

Users outside the official launch areas have been trying to download and install it using the apk files, bypassing the official app store. Traffic to apkmirror.com has been said to ‘explode’ with over 600,000 visits on July 5, which rose to 4 million on July 6.

However, new information from ZhugeEX reveals that Pokemon Go has been trending so much that it has put porn searches to shame. Presently, it is also said that it is the best time to invest on Nintendo’s stocks. The last time the company’s stock graph went high was when they announced their partnership with DeNA last year, which was done to start their mobile game development.

Pokemon Go is presently not yet launched in India and other parts of the world since the company has reported a technical glitch in their servers. Presently the game is only available for download (officially) in US, New Zealand and Australia. If you want to download the game unofficially from APKMirror, click here.
