Level-Up Research Adjustment

A level 47 Level-Up Research task will be adjusted during this event. Instead of requiring you to explore 25 km in a week eight times, you’ll only need to do so twice.

This is the perfect opportunity to reach those nearby leveling milestones as you prepare for the coming update.
