As the second Sunday of the month is starting in the easternmost countries of the world, we are receiving numerous reports that the Second Sunday campaign is not becoming visible for some Agents in the scanner. At the moment we are not aware of mitigations or workarounds for this issue.

We will update this message with status updates, acknowledgments by Niantic and other useful info.

🟢 22:00 UTC - Agents are reporting that the Second Sunday campaign is now being displayed for those who weren't able to see it before. A restart of the app may be necessary.

Operation Portal Recon is now live and can be accessed by any Agent that has reached L16 or has recursed! We have observed some differences to how Niantic Wayfarer worked:

- Upgrades have been removed and it is no longer possible to prioritize submissions
- The Help Chat has been removed from the "Help" tab
- The setting for "Wayfarer Challenge" was renamed to "OPR Challenge", indicating that Challenges like the ones we know from Wayfarer could also happen under OPR
- All past Contributions under Wayfarer and before as well as Contributions after the Wayfarer split are visible on the website
- Wayfarer stats were not carried over, Agents are restarting from zero
---> This does not reset the Recon medal in the Scanner
- The Seer medal is now live and is being distributed to Agents! This might take a bit to complete, so don't panic if you cannot see it yet or the Tier is not correct

Other things that we know from Wayfarer have been carried over as they were during the split, such as Appeals, the Review flow, setting of Home and Bonus location as well as Holding and Editing your Contributions.

Niantic Spatial and the Ingress team have announced a partnership with Paramount Pictures to promote the upcoming film "The Running Man". The event is set to run from November 12th to November 19th.

According to the post, here's what to expect:

- A special media drop will be available globally, which delves into the film's plot

- For Agents in Los Angeles, there will be a special city-wide walking mission and a community event. You can sign up for a special walk together with the Ingress team here: https://luma.com/09d0q4eu

This collaboration builds on the work of immersive storytelling from Niantic Spatial and other collaborations, and "This collaboration is just one example of how we are using geospatial AI to turn the world into a living, intelligent canvas, empowering any creator or storyteller to craft their own immersive and interactive worlds atop our own."

This is not the first time that Ingress has collaborated with other companies to promote the launch or release of a product. As an example for movies specifically, Ingress featured special missions for the release of Star Wars Episode VII that you were able to complete in a few select cities around the world.

You can read the full announcement on the official blog: https://ingress.com/news/ingress-paramount-collaboration

Recent Issues with Daily Bounties

We received numerous reports about the Daily Bounties not ticking up when an action is completed. Pressing the Resync button or restarting the scanner does not seem to help. Some other report that it might take up to an hour before bounties are updated.
According to several Agents, the issue has been ongoing for a while now, and some were not able to complete their dailies in time before midnight, losing out on some +Beta Tokens.

We will update this post as soon as more is found about this issue, or if it gets sorted out.

🟢 00:35 UTC - Issue solved and systems caught up!

After the last Anomaly Events of 2025, the Enlightened have a lead on the Resistance in the Series Score, which currently reads:
ENL 1013.8 - 786.2 RES

This graph shows the current distribution of points as of today: as you can see, the series is still far from decided as only roughly one third of the available points has been assigned!

Three global events will determine the winner of this series:
🔸Bounty Ops - ongoing, ends on December 14th
🔸Buildup Battles -
November 21st @ 17:00 UTC to December 1st @ 17:00 UTC
🔸Shard Storm
- December 13th and 14th from 13:00 to 17:00 local time

We have received reports that the amount of +Beta Tokens you recieve after interacting with a high category Battle Beacon is a multitude higher than the stated amount from the Ingress team.

Over 200 Agents in Yokohama and 50 Agents in Osaka came together to deploy and fight over Battle Beacons, but many have reported of receiving more than 10000 +Beta Tokens within a few minutes. This would have required over 300 CAT-VI Battle Beacons interacted with, however the reported amount of deployed Battle Beacons is a lot lower.

The exact cause of this discrepancy isn't apparent yet and it is unknown if the Ingress team has quietly tweaked the Token reward for higher CAT Battle Beacons or if there is another unknown modifier. Let us know your observations from your own Battles!
-----
Additionally, we have also received reports about CMU prices changing in multiple regions globally.

For example, CMU prices in Sri Lanka, Türkiye and the Philippines have been raised, while prices in the Eurozone have been lowered (although they are different between Android and iOS).

If you see any price changes in your region, please also let us know in the comments!

The Year 13 celebrations have ended and all bonuses such as 2x AP should have been reverted!

Niantic Spatial will now start assigning the Year 13 Voyager medal according to your current level as follows:

- Bronze: Level 3
- Silver: Level 9
- Gold: Level 13
- Platinum: Level 15
- Onyx: Level 16/Recursed

This process will take a few hours and it is possible that you may see lower tiers still locked when you get the higher tier Voyager medal. This will automatically fix itself once the rollout is complete for all Agents, so do not panic if you see a wrong tier or if you haven't gotten your medal yet while others did.

Ingress is has now entered its 14th year of operation! We already know that the future will hold a new feature with CARGO as well as the continuation of Anomalies, Mission Days and the expansion of OPR. We look forward to the upcoming journey and are excited about the future!

Did you miss one of the Global Challenges from Q1 2024 through Q1 2025?

Niantic Spatial is experimenting with a new type of event called Global Op Redux! You will be able to attempt up to five Global Ops again and unlock their respective medals. The requirements for these medals are the same as they were for the original Global Op.

Already got Silver during the original Global Op? You'll be able to earn Recursion Wings for your original medal, but only if you have already gained the Silver Tier in the original Global Op. If you haven't Recursed yet, they will be retroactively applied to your original medal if you Recurse in the future.

The following Global Ops will be available to reattempt:

+Alpha (Q1 2025): Free
Erased Memories (Q4 2024): 2,000 CMU
Shared Memories (Q3 2024): 4,000 CMU
Buried Memories (Q2 2024): 7,000 CMU
Cryptic Memories (Q1 2024): 15,000 CMU

The team notes that these Redux Challenges are a personal experience only and are not a faction vs. faction battle like the original Global Ops. Consequently, the results of the Redux Campaigns will not influence past Anomaly Season Points.

Aside from +Alpha, the Erased Global Ops will require CMU to purchase the Redux Campaigns. The team says that the pricing reflects rarity: the farther back the Global Op, the higher the cost.

All Redux Campaigns will be available from Dec 1, 2025, 17:00 UTC. You can purchase the Premium Campaigns up until Feb 2, 2026, 17:00, and all Campaigns must be claimed before Feb 9, 2026, 17:00 UTC, after which they expire.

The Support pages have been restructured and moved from ingress.com/support to support.ingress.com. This move also switched the Support platform to Zendesk, both online and in the Scanner.

The Ingress Support chat itself also got an update, and Remy now seems to have been retired! When submitting a ticket to support, you will now be communicating with ADA, an AI chatbot.

The menu of earlier options is also removed and ADA will ask you instead to state your enquiry in open text format. Depending on your input, ADA will then guide you through the required steps to open a new ticket.

Niantic announced a new challenge for Agents in this final period of the year: the Winter Solstice 2025 Campaign!

It is a free campaign which will run from Friday, December 5th @ 18:00 UTC until Monday, December 22nd @ 18:00 UTC, consisting of 4 assignments.

The Bronze Winter Solstice Dispatch Challenge Medal (left) will be awarded after completing 2 assignments, the Silver Medal (center) will be awarded upon completion of the Campaign.

Additionally, a special Winter Solstice 2025 Medal (right) will be available for purchase in the store for 10.000 CMU.

The following bonuses will be active during the period of the Campaign:

🔸Portal Capture AP increased from 800 to 2,000 AP.
🔸2x Power Cube output from Hacking.
🔸Guaranteed Key drop from Hacking Portals you do not hold a Key for.
🔸Glyph Hack Timer increased by 50%.
🔸Drone cooldown reduced to 15 minutes.
🔸Distance required for the Hypercube Kinetic Program reduced from 8km to 1km.

Niantic released some insights about the inspiration behind the design of this medal series:
The series of Winter Solstice medal arts pays homage to the ancient astronomers of Chaco Canyon who created the Sun Dagger. At the Sun Dagger, two beams of light precisely bracket the main spiral petroglyph during the winter solstice, marking the shortest day of the year. This astronomical event is part of a complex calendar system used by the ancestral Pueblo people to track the movements of the sun and moon for agricultural and ceremonial purposes.

🎄 The Hackvent Calendar is back! 🎄

Agents, the call goes out once more: Christmas is in danger and Anti-Claus is at work again. Small sparks of joy are vanishing, and tiny misfortunes grow into real disasters – this is not the future we want, and it is up to us to change course together. Remember the world we are striving for; with every action you take, you help push things back towards hope and light.

Every day for 24 days, you will receive missions: some game-based stats tasks, some creative challenges, all designed so every agent can contribute in their own way. You can upload your results either through the Telegram bot or directly on the website, and all tasks will be available in 🇬🇧🇪🇸🇫🇷🇩🇪🇯🇵🇵🇹 so agents around the globe can join the fight.

Ready to stand against Anti-Claus and save Christmas again?

The +Beta Buildup Battle ends and the Global Op Redux starts!

A few minutes ago, the +Beta Buildup Battle has concluded, and Agents are now anxiously waiting for the results to be published. They will be announced within a week from now.

As we say goodbye to a very hard fought Global Challenge which can determine the destiny of the +Beta Series given the amount of +Beta Season Points at stake, a new set of campaigns has unlocked on our scanners! It's time for the Global Op Redux!

This set of paid campaigns will allow Agents to obtain the Global Op medal from previous Series, or get the Wings of Recursion for your Silver Tier Medal if you already achieved it during the original Op.
