Agents,
We can now report Fuji TV is the official partner of the upcoming Ingress anime.

In addition, we’ve received intel suggesting Agents will have the opportunity to witness exclusive content from the anime and Ingress Prime at the Fukuoka XM Festival after party on Saturday, April 7th.

But the fun doesn’t end there; agents who participate in the XM Festival or any of the MAGNUS events will be awarded an in-game exclusive medal. Agents, it’s time to move.

Breaking: OPR Submission Limit Update

PAC wrote:

A reliable source informs me that OPR in the Ingress Scanner is getting a boost. The source tells me the thresholds are being raised, and Agents will now be able to submit more Portals than was previously possible… Details should emerge via official channels shortly… keep an ear to the ground

Ingress posted:

Agents,
Thank you for your feedback on the Portal submission and review process. The Portal network has been growing in large part thanks to your submissions of new candidates. Starting today, you will be able to submit up to 14 Portals within a 14 day period.

#ExclusiveMedal

Ingress has given some details on the in-game exclusive medal.

It can be earned participating in the XM Festival in Fukuoka (April 7th) or any of the Magnus events (Camp Navarro, USA or Schloss Kaltenberg, Germany on May 25th)

The medal cannot be earned from going to an Anomaly. The offsite participants will not receive it.

​​The new Ingress anime

Original work by Niantic
Director: Yuhei Sakuragi
Production: Craftar
Each episode: 30 minutes

Ingress will be receiving its own anime series which is set to begin airing October 2018. This is what the plot says:

Now, a new struggle is about to unfold in Tokyo and across the globe. Dangerous and powerful forces seeking to exploit the potential of XM will collide

The official site of the anime writes "This groundbreaking project will mark the beginning of an epic augmented-reality experience combining the three elements of animation, location-based gaming, and the real world".

In particular, at the announcement of the anime the producer explained that it will be cross platform: the game story and the animation will interlock in real time. The world of Scanner will suffered by story of animation, and reverse direction also.

Producers think that after watching an episode in our houses, we will want to go out and play Ingress. What do you think about it?

Special thanks to @NeueGhost and @abs1nthe for the translation of the video

The book will be published on May 29th but you can preorder a copy here: https://www.neverlostagain.earth/

Dear Kilday, what about sending to our redaction some copies to review it? 😉

The astrophysicist Stephen Hawking sadly passed away,
We want to remember him with perhaps his most famous sentence.

«Remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet... And however difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do, and succeed at.»

PAC remembered him with this post http://investigate.ingress.com/2018/03/13/a-dice-thrown-where-we-cannot-see/
