Palworld's newest patch stops you from gliding with your Pals, and yes, it is because of Nintendo's lawsuit

by

We all know that Palworld developer Pocketpair are currently dealing with a lawsuit from Mario maker Nintendo. Specifically, it's over patent rights, rather than something like copyright infringement which everyone was expecting given the liberties that Palword takes with its Pal designs. In November it was confirmed what those patents are, partially relating to the fact you could throw out your Pals from a ball and they'd appear, similar to Pokemon Legends Arceus. That feature was patched out from Palworld though, and in a new post Pocketpair has confirmed that this is because of the ongoing lawsuit. Read more

Palworld is changing several key gameplay systems amid Pokemon Company lawsuit

by editor@pcgamesn.com

Palworld, oh, how I've missed you. Blasting onto the scene in January of last year, topping the charts and upsetting parents everywhere, Pocketpair's colossal survival game has been quiet as of late, possibly a result of ongoing legal troubles with Nintendo. Several of Palworld's game mechanics have been compared to the Switch maker's classic creature catcher, Pokemon, with various models also allegedly plagiarized from Nintendo's game. While aspects and mechanics of Palworld have already been removed or adjusted in response to the lawsuit, Pocketpair has now confirmed that more "disappointing" changes are on the way.

From Palworld movies to Palworld TV shows: 'Everyone under the sun pitched us every idea you can imagine,' says Pocketpair's communications director

by Christopher Livingston

Palworld blew up big in 2024, becoming only the second game in Steam history to hit more than 2 million concurrent players (along with PUBG and, later that same year, Black Myth: Wukong). That kind of success put a big target on developer Pocketpair, drawing fraudulent claims of AI use and plagiarism, heaps of abuse from gamers, and a patent lawsuit from Nintendo... Read more.
