Niantic Will Reportedly Settle for Nearly $1.6 Million Over Bungled Pokémon GO Festival
2018 年 4 月 2 日

App developer Niantic has settled a lawsuit over a botched Pokémon GO festival in Chicago’s Grant Park in July 2017 for nearly $1.6 million, TechCrunch reported on Saturday … Some among the estimated 20,000 festival-goers got very disappointed when the heavily promoted event was rife with internet connectivity problems and in-game crashes, with one who traveled all the way from California filing a class action lawsuit against Niantic over the $25 ticket fees and incidental expenses like mileage and hotels … (Some ticket scalpers reportedly charged up to $400 on eBay after slots reportedly sold out in minutes, according to the Chicago Tribune.) Now, TechCrunch reports, Niantic has agreed to pay out $1,575,000 to help cover incurred costs for attendees—that’s after previously offering refunds for all tickets, giving players $100 in in-game currency, and giving them all some legendary Pokémon.
