Ingress 2sDay

This is a new event that Niantic just announced Ingress 2sDay #Ingress2sDay

Ingress Second Sundays Update

Niantic has shared an interesting update coming for second sundays that we can look forward to in October.

The Ingress Second Sunday #Ingress2S events were introduced to encourage exploration and adventure, and we are ready to expand the idea by adding more variations to the ways you may earn this medal. While doing 6 unique Missions will still suffice through September, Agents could be asked to meet a different set of challenges starting from October onwards.

On Ingress Mission Days

Stay tuned for a separate announcement about upcoming MIssion Days

Niantic is accepting applications for 2023 Q4 Mission Days until August 15.

  • Application Form English / Japanese

It seems like we have some interesting changes coming up Agents. I hope you all get to go out and try them out as they come to pass!
