Agent chatter from around the globe speaks of a familiar lull. Machina infections are receding, echoing a past decline. Is this another temporary reprieve? Stay sharp, Agents. We've seen this pattern before.

New Dispatch Campaigns have been revealed for the Orion Season with Orion Tokens, Badges (or wings for them) as well as items on the line!
Three new Redux Dispatch Campaigns will be available from May 1st 18:00 UTC throughout June 1st 18:00 UTC, focusing on three of the old Nemesis Global Challenges:
- Nemesis Redux: Myriad
The focus of this Campaign is not completely clear, but it will reward Orion Tokens, the "Myriad Hack Challenge" medal (or wings for it if you have already gotten Gold in July 2019) as well as various items.
- Nemesis Redux: Courier
This Campaign is seemingly focused on destroying Resonators and will reward the "Courier Meet You Out There Challenge" medal (or wings for it if you have already gotten Gold in August 2021) as well as various items. No Orion Tokens will be available from this Campaign!
- Nemesis Redux: Umbra
This Campaign is seemingly focused on deploying Resonators and will reward, the "Umbra Deploy Challenge" medal (or wings for it if you have already gotten Gold in December 2019) as well as various items. No Orion Tokens will be available from this Campaign!
———
In addition, two Dispatch Campaigns focusing on Mothers Day and Fathers Day are also inbound with two new medals you can earn:
- The Acolyte - Mother's Day 2026
Runs from May 8th 18:00 UTC to May 18th 18:00 UTC and will award the Acolyte Mother's Day 2026 medal after completing 3 out of 4 bounties.
- Nigel Moyer - Father's Day 2026
Runs from June 12th 18:00 UTC to June 22th 18:00 UTC and will award the Nigel Moyer Father's Day 2026 after completing 3 out of 4 bounties.
———
For all of these Campaigns it is unknown which of these will be free and which of these will be paid (and how much they will cost). It is reasonable to assume however that at least the Nemesis Redux: Myriad Campaign will be free as it is the only Campaign that awards Orion Tokens.

Aiming to go above and beyond with the Orion Global Op? One of the items you are awarded when restarting the Campaign is a Very Rare Link Amp!
Very Rare Link Amps cannot be hacked and were, in the past, mostly only available through special Passcodes given out by the team or hackable as rewards during special events. As such, VR Link Amps are one of, if not the most rare item in the game, even though almost all Agents are in no need for them in day to day gameplay.
This is a rare opportunity to get your hands on a VR Link Amp anywhere in the world and without relying on luck or similar as long as you get out there and move, Agent!
("Linkverstärker" = German translation of "Link Amp")

This reward has now been changed to a SoftBank Ultra Link. The Very Rare Link Amp is no longer available as a reward from the Campaign.

Orion Global Op
Reports are coming in that points for the Orion Global Op do not currently appear to be increasing, even though the Event is only scheduled to end at 18:00 UTC.
Edit:
The Orion Global Op end time will be extended by 24 hours, and will now end Tue May 12 18:00 UTC
The operation is scheduled to conclude at 18:00 UTC on 2026-05-11. However, since the event reportedly started two hours earlier than intended, it is possible the system may also have ended progression early by mistake.

Niantic Spatial has released Update 3.9.1 into the App Store and Play Store, currently rolling out to Agents.
The team has added a new "Scanner Upgraded" screen that guides new Agents through the Scanner and noting its features as they level up until Level 8, likely to point out new features they unlock such as the Kinetic Capsule, Mission creation and so on. Additionally, an iOS specific bug was fixed that prevented Agents from buying C.O.R.E. as well as an not mentioned change made that shrunk down the "On the Radar" entries in the Dispatch screen. Also fixed: the notification dot for Dronenet which disappeared in the previous version and the persistence of layers settings after app restarts.
We were also privately notified by Agents of the addition of two new item types in the code: "FACTION_CHANGE" and "CODENAME_EDIT", classified specifically as a Boost item like Apex, Frackers and other Premium items. It stands to reason that the Ingress team is currently working on a way to buy a Faction Change and/or an Agent Name change via the game store, although the exact details of such changes (such as a potential time limit between purchases, Level limit or other restrictions) are not known at the moment.
(⚠ Do note that features not officially confirmed by the team should be treated as rumors only. Such features can change or abandoned without notification.)

Agents have reported the reappearance of the Nemesis Redux campaigns.
This is the promised "make good" extension which follows the erroneous closure of these campaigns 6 hours earlier than originally planned.
The Campaigns will remain active until June 15th @ 18:00 UTC.

The Ingress FS team has confirmed a few things for the Q3 Ingress First Saturday events:
- As with in Q2, attending an IFS event will award Agents with Tokens for their individual Anomaly medal
- Returning as well are the Season Points for the Agents of a Factions that attend the event. More Agents attending will likely mean more points for the Apollo season for your Faction
- The ITO EN Dispatch Challenge passcodes will not be returning for Q3 as it was an exclusive prize for Q2
--> In general, it is unknown if the Ingress team will make the Campaign available in another way

The Ingress team has released Update 3.10.1 which is currently rolling out to Agents.
Among the fixes is a speculative fix for Portals that could became "stuck" on the game board and could not be deployed on or attacked. These Portals were able to become unstuck in the past by either liking one of its pictures or deploying a Beacon/Firework on it. This fix hopefully removed the cause of the bug so that these Portals can't become stuck in the first place anymore.
Another fix was for the opening animation of the game when the globe was zooming in. For the last few versions your location was shown in the middle of the ocean at the 0.0,0.0 coordinates, this has now been fixed to show your correct location again.
While a few fixes have been included, Agents on iOS have reported that Deeplinks are broken and cannot be opened in the app anymore. This does not seem to affect Android.

Niantic Spatial has reactivated the purchase of Bounty Passes, giving you a last chance to catch up on Orion Tokens if you are missing some for the last Tier of your seasonal medal.
@IUENG_Extra
At up to +40 additional Orion Tokens per day until the end of this month, if you complete your 4 free bounties and the bounties from a 7-Day Bounty Pass, then you should be able to earn 7*40*2=560 Orion Tokens. - Brian on Reddit

About half an hour ago the Ingress team enabled some server settings on accident which (aside from giving you the very short opportunity to Overclock a Portal again) showed a new feature the team is working on: Agent Protips!
As far as we understand, these tips can be shown dynamically depending on the interactions you are currently taking. For example, in the screenshot above, Devra (or Hank if you are Enlightened) will comment on a Portal that is not fully charged and will explain how you can recharge. Other Protips that have been reported were explaining what a Portal Burnout is when hacking a burned out Portal and how to reset it as well as how to best use Ultra Strikes.
As these tips are seemingly very much aimed at new Agents, an option in the settings will be available to turn these tips off.

Something is shifting in the XM network.
P.A. Chapeau and Hank Johnson have intercepted a series of classified 1930s documents from a remote New Mexico ranch. They belong to an artist named Agnes Brandt, whose compulsive, prophetic drawings foretold a deep ideological rift with her sister, Vera.
What is the Red Codex, and why is the network reacting to it now? Prepare your Scanners. The past is about to resurface.

The Ingress team has released Update 3.11.1!
A bug that snuck itself in last update regarding Deep Links has been fixed and opening them now once again correctly opens the corresponding screen in the Scanner. Another problem in regards to ghost drones was fixed, as well as a speculative fix for the Scanner signing out of Ingress when the app was in the background or closed was added.
Unusually, although the platform is normally the first to get new updates, this update is not yet available on iOS. At the moment it is only rolling out to Agents on Android.
