Nintendo sues 'Pokemon with guns' maker for patent infringement
Nintendo and The Pokemon Company have filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Pocketpair for its game, Palworld, claiming it infringes multiple patent rights.
The suit was filed on September 18 in Tokyo District Court, seeking an injunction and damages.
Nintendo stated it will take necessary actions to protect its intellectual property rights.
Palworld was incredibly popular at the beginning of the year, but already then many noticed that the creatures that can be folded into a row of slaves look eerily similar to Pokémon.
