Niantic has revealed details of its lineup of event locations for its walking games (Pokémon Go, Harry Potter: Wizards Unite and Ingress) for 2020. And the company also said that it drove more than $249 million in tourism revenue for the cities on its event list for 2019.
The San Francisco-based Niantic said it has added Liverpool, Philadelphia, and St. Louis to its event list in 2020.
For some reason Discord decided that Google Chrome was a verified game and named it Minecraft, and I can't change it because Discord is '100% correct' with their verified games! So now I'm pretty much always playing Minecraft (while not even owning the game). For the paints, it was only 17 colors, plus three if you count the flesh-tones that I had to sneak in there. Including the two spray-paints (the cheap primer and the GW gold) and the basing materials, the hobby supplies come out to around $140. AJ gets shutout for the 5th time. The last time he was shutout was Game 227: October 26, 2018. Hawk ties his personal best 5 straight correct answers. He was the first ever to do it back in December 12, 2014 (Game 29). Hawk gets his first win of 2019 and his 53rd win! He last won Game 236: December 28, 2018.

The company estimated the total impact for the cities hosting the events were $120 million for Chicago, $71 million for Montreal, and $54 million for Dortmund, Germany.
This means that Niantic has done something unique in gaming. Through large-scale live events, hundreds of thousands of players from around the world have come together to play games, explore the world, and share experiences.
Michael Steranka, the senior manager of live events at Niantic, said in a statement that live events have been central to its games in the past seven years, leading to more interactive expriences that foster exploration, discover, healthy lifestyles, and social meetings that lead to lasting friendships.
