Pokemon Go servers appeared to crash on Saturday, leaving millions unable to play the augmented reality game.

Users across Europe and the US complained they are unable to access the game, or that it is regularly freezing.

Players began to report problems with the game shortly after 2pm.

A hacking group named PoodleCorp has claimed responsibility for taking down the Pokemon Go servers through a denial of service (DDOS) attack.

The problems follow the US launch of the game earlier this month, which caused servers to crash due to overwhelming demand.

The makers of the game issued a statement on Twitter on Saturday afternoon saying: "We have been working to fix the #PokemonGO server issues. Thank you for your patience." Read More http://buzzhubb.com/pokemon-go-taken-world-storm/
