Having Pokémon GO out in time for the Summer Olympics in Rio De Janeiro would no doubt encourage people to explore the city and meet new people. Pokémon GO is already available in the USA, UK, New Zealand, Australia, and Germany. It will no doubt see a release across the globe but no release date has been confirmed for South America. The Summer Olympics in Brazil will commence on August 5.
