Fantasma, Dynabytes\' augmented reality adventure, adds new languages to coincide with Gamescom Latam

At Pocket Gamer, we strive to bring you the latest on mobile gaming, but occasionally, a gem like Dynabytes' Fantasma slips through the cracks. I stumbled upon this intriguing title at Gamescom Latam last week, and it's definitely worth a closer look. Fantasma is an augmented reality multiplayer GPS adventure that challenges you to battle evil creatures in your real-world environment.

The game's recent update not only caught my attention but also introduced support for Japanese, Korean, Malay, and Portuguese languages, perfectly timed with the event in Brazil. Dynabytes is committed to expanding its reach further, with plans to add German, Italian, and Spanish in the coming months.

So, what's the deal with Fantasma? You're on a mission to track down and combat these pesky entities known as Fantasmas, which are causing chaos in the world. To lure them in, you'll deploy portable electromagnetic fields as bait. Once they're enticed, the real fun begins. You'll engage in AR battles, swinging your phone to keep the Fantasma in view while tapping the screen to shoot energy balls at them. The goal is to deplete their health and trap them in specialized bottles.

The Fantasmas appear based on your real-world location, encouraging you to explore your surroundings to encounter more of these creatures. To enhance your hunting range, you can use sensors that draw them in from greater distances. And the best part? You don't have to go it alone. Team up with other players for a more social and collaborative experience.

Fantasma is now available for free on the App Store and Google Play, with in-app purchases available. If you're intrigued, you can download it for your preferred platform using the links below.
