Shards come to East Anglia!

On 21st May, players from all over the country visited Cambridge to battle for control of shards - a phenomenon which had not been seen in the wild since before the pandemic. Despite being plagued by data signal and game stability issues, the event offered a great taste of some of the fast and furious gameplay that Ingress can deliver at times.

Naturally the Enlightened took 12 of the 13 shards, leaving one for the Resistance so they wouldn't feel too badly left out. We let them win the battle beacons, too, because somebody's got to pay for all those solid gold Ferraris that Niantic drive.
