Following what feels like years worth of debate on social media and in other places about Palworld and the fact that some aspects of it are a bit similar to Pokemon, the company responsible for the latter has issued a statement acknowledging it. Well, sort of.
We’ve already had some actual lawyers weigh in on the whole Palworld/Pokemon discourse – which has largely stemmed from the designs used for a few of the former’s models – earlier this week, providing some insight that’s a little bit less unhinged than the kind of armchair legal expert patter that’s been going on elsewhere. Now, The Pokemon Company has decided to say something, though it’s not a whole lot.
In a quite corporately-worded statement posted to its corporate website, the company wrote: “We have received many inquiries regarding another company’s game released in January 2024.” No points for guessing which January release is being referred to there.
