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

At Pocket Gamer, we strive to bring you the latest in mobile gaming, but occasionally, some gems slip through the cracks. One such game that recently caught my attention at Gamescom Latam is Dynabytes' "Fantasma," an exciting augmented reality multiplayer GPS adventure. The name might be a tongue-twister, but the gameplay promises to be anything but.

The spotlight on Fantasma at Gamescom Latam wasn't just for show; it coincided with a significant update introducing support for Japanese, Korean, Malay, and Portuguese languages—a nod to the event's Brazilian setting. But Dynabytes isn't stopping there; German, Italian, and Spanish language support are slated to roll out over the next few months, making Fantasma even more accessible to players worldwide.

So, what exactly is Fantasma? It's a thrilling adventure where you hunt down and battle mischievous entities known as Fantasmas. These creatures are causing chaos in the real world, and it's up to you to stop them. Instead of traditional bait, you use portable electromagnetic fields to lure them in. Once they're in your sights, the battle begins in augmented reality. Whether you're in your bedroom or a local park, you'll be swinging your phone to keep the Fantasma in view, tapping the screen to fire at them with energy balls until you can capture them in specialized bottles.

The Fantasmas you encounter appear based on your real-world location, encouraging you to explore your surroundings to find more. To enhance your hunting experience, deploy sensors that extend your radar, drawing in Fantasmas from further away. And for those who enjoy a more social gaming experience, you can team up with other players to take on these paranormal challenges together.

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