New details of Pokémon Go were made available overnight.

The augmented reality game on both iOS and Android will require a wearable Bluetooth wristband in order to catch ’em all. You can take a look at the wearable thanks to NintendoTweet:

The wearable will pair with your iOS or Android phone and will alert you of nearby Pokémon and other events by flashing and vibrating. The wearable will be manufactured by Nintendo.

Pokémon Go will be a free download on iOS and Android in 2016. No word yet on how much the wearable will set you back.
