Pokémon Go‘s revamped Gyms are now live, developer Niantic advised.

Users will be able to experience tweaked battles and gain Gym Badges from Gyms from today onwards.

Niantic detailed the changes earlier in the week: Gyms will now offer Badges via the same Photo Disc feature found within PokéStops. Gym battles have been amended so that you’ll fight Pokémon in the order they were placed in a Gym. All Pokémon in a Gym will be unique as well. For the full set of changes, head here.

Pokémon Go‘s is available now on iOS and Android devices.

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
