Nintendo and the Pokemon Company are suing the creators of Palworld Pocket Pair. However, it's not a copyright lawsuit, it's a patent infringement lawsuit. The difference is that a patent is an invention, whereas copyright could be considered art. In this situation, Nintendo is not specifically going after the design infringements of Palworld, but instead something deeper. We don't know yet which Patents have allegedly been infringed upon. Nintendo first reacted to the release of Palworld back in Jan 2024 and they said that they would be investigating to do a lawsuit. Eight months later, it seems that they have stuck to their word. The creators of Palworld, Pocket Pair, have said that they will fight this lawsuit to stand up for indie developers everywhere. If there's more updates about this lawsuit, I'll be sure to mention it on the Gaming News. Have you played Palworld?
