The first big patch of 2022 for Pokemon Unite is arriving as we speak, but what does it change and what new gear will it bring. Let’s have a look at what’s going down today (January 20th) with Pokemon Unite update 1.4.1.2.
Is Pokemon Unite down?
Hopefully not. There were nine hours of downtime scheduled on January 19th while the devs got everything ready, but barring any disasters, all should be up and running now. If there are issues for you it could just be the sheer volume of players jumping on board to try out the new patch, so give it a few minutes and try again would be court advice. We will keep an eye on things though and report back.
