Pokemon Go might be coming to Windows phone

Himanshu, 21 July, 2016

Mobile-gaming sensation Pokémon Go, which is currently only available for Android and iOS, could be making its way to the Windows Phone platform. This was revealed by Microsoft Portugal on their Facebook page.

The revelation came in the form of a comment to a user's post. Here's the complete text (translated):

Hi Rafael,

The application will be home soon, which refers to the windows phone store.

Thank you,

Team Microsoft Portugal

However, a quick look now at the comments under that post reveals that the above mentioned comment has been retracted, and a new comment has been posted which says:

Dear fans, we apologize if the comment published previously you induced in error. We have actually received requests for this application will be available for windows phone. The store windows is evaluating options to satisfy this request in the best possible way. We promise to keep you abreast of any developments.

While the latest comment suggests that Pokemon Go for Windows Phone isn't going to happen anytime soon (if at all), we will still keep an eye and let you know if Microsoft comes out with any sort of official confirmation on this.
