We wrote that Nintendo filed a lawsuit for patent infringement against the developer of Palworld, which is called "Pokémon with guns". Now the game authors have responded.

Here's What We Know

Pocketpair announced that it would initiate legal proceedings and investigate claims of patent infringement.

However, the studio is not aware of the specific patents it is accused of infringing and has not been informed of such details.

As a reminder, Nintendo has filed a patent lawsuit rather than a copyright infringement lawsuit, so we can assume that the complaint by Nintendo and The Pokémon Company is likely to focus on the gameplay rather than the similarity between the character designs.

Now we are waiting for the results to find out how it all turns out.
