"Since Pokémon Go first launched in 2016, we've seen a number of other AR games launch as well," said Kristen Hanich, senior analyst at Parks Associates.

However, none have risen to the same level of success, and even Pokémon Go was "successful mainly because of its tie-in to the extremely popular Pokémon brand, as well as its core gameplay elements," she told TechNewsWorld.

The question is whether this game could be too ambitious for today's AR technology.
