The level 80 cap update in Pokémon GO is released on Wednesday, October 15, 2025. The trainer level cap will be increased from 50 to 80 with a rebalanced leveling system that allows more frequent level-ups and rewards. Players' current XP will be applied to the new leveling curve, so no one will drop in level, and players level 23 or higher will gain at least one level with the update. New rewards such as increased storage, avatar items, and level-up research tasks for levels 71 to 80 are included in this update.
