Sad news: You still won't be able to play Pokémon Go in Malaysia anytime soon

We hope you didn't stay up all night scouting possible PokéStops in KL after hearing rumours that Pokémon Go will be available in Malaysia today, because sadly, it won't be here anytime soon. According to an official statement by representatives from Niantic (the developers of Pokémon Go), they 'do not have any announced plans for countries beyond New Zealand, Australia, US and Germany at the moment'.

Tough luck for Pokémon Trainers everywhere in the country, but we suggest remaining patient and not downloading the game prematurely (you run the risk of getting banned once Pokémon Go is officially released and face the possibility of having your phone hacked). If you really need to collect something, here are five cat games to play while you wait for Pokémon Go. Go ahead and catch 'em all.
