'Pokemon Go' News & Update: Mobile Game Crashes Its Australian Servers? Hillary Clinton To Hold Campaign At A Pokemon Go Gym?[VIDEO]

By

Due to high demand for the mobile augmented-reality game 'Pokemon Go,' its app server crashed in Australia.

On Tuesday, July 12, due to "Pokemon Go" craze in Australia, the app server was crashed, while attracting safety and trespassing warning from authorities, according to Strait Times. The game has become a huge hit with online players since it was rolled out last week in New Zealand, Australia, and the United States.

After it was released, there are more than than five million downloads on the Android Google Play app store, and now it has topped Apple's app charts. On Sunday, July 10, there were more than thousands of gamers spotted who went to the iconic harbor to chase the virtual poke monsters around the Opera House and Botanical Gardens with their mobile phones.

Meanwhile, Democratic Presidential candidate and former first lady, Hillary Clinton will hold a campaign event at a Pokemon Gym, The Verge reported. The event will be held Madison Park in Lakewood, Ohio.

Clinton's campaign website announced, "Join us as we go to the Pokéstop in Madison Park and put up a lure module, get free pokémon, and battle each other."

For those who have no idea what is this game, "Pokemon Go" is an augmented mobile game, overlaying a virtual world over the real one. If you are going to play this game, it requires traveling to locations in some cities and towns to catch the virtual creatures, just like in the anime series.

Although many players are hooked with this game, some have experienced some technical issues like crashing while playing. In some countries, this mobile game is not yet available as the "Pokemon Go" International Rollout was delayed.

Meanwhile, in Wyoming, a teen discovered a dead body floating in the town river while she was playing the "Pokemon Go."
