Choose the side you want to fight for, interact with real-world objects and work together with other Ingress Prime Agents around the globe. This is our Ingress Prime download page.

Plot

Ingress Prime is written as a science fiction story that works with a continuous open narrative as you advance through the game. It takes place at an unspecified time in the future. A team of scientists at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) accidentally discovers a transdimensional force called Exotic Matter (XM). The new transdimensional intelligence is associated with the Shapers, a mysterious alien race.

There are two different teams, also called factions, in the Ingress universe. Each of them has its own specific interest in XM. The resistance faction considers XM as a potential threat to humanity, whereas the Enlightened believe that XM can be used as an energy to improve humanity.

Gameplay

Your world, your game: Explore the universe by wandering around the real world and interact with buildings, landmarks and monuments. Use your Ingress Scanner to collect valuable XM whenever you come across the resource.
Choose your faction: Join the forces of the faction you most believe in. Whether it's the Resistance or the Enlightened, the fate of the universe is in your hands.
Cooperate: Many hands make light work. Connect with fellow Agents in your area or anywhere in the world, create strategies together and dominate territories by linking your portals.

Graphics

This game was originally released in 2014 by the name of Ingress. While the game's visuals looked pretty impressive at that time, they slowly started to feel a bit outdated due to the incredibly rapid changes in smartphone technologies. For that reason Niantic revamped the title in 2018 as Ingress Prime, upgrading the graphics engine and breathing new life into the already very strong augmented reality capabilities.

Game modes

Ingress Prime is a massively multiplayer game powered by augmented-reality technology. As a player you can interact with other Ingress Prime users in your neighbourhood.
