Why? So I have to give it GPS access to play it but apparently the GPS usage is optional? Why can't I opt-in or out when I want to use it? What if I plan to play this game exclusively from my couch? More companies out to make useless features to barely disguise selling your data.
The new game is a GPS based Action RPG with a new story that builds on the Kingdom Hearts storyline.. While the new game isn’t an AR title, it does use a player’s real-life location to figure out their location in the game’s map.
Thats not why. Because it also says you can play without ever leaving your home. So obviously there is a way to traverse the map without the GPS. If it is optional, you should have the option to opt-in or out.
