Palworld developer responds to Nintendo lawsuit, says "we will do our utmost" to ensure that indie devs "are not hindered or discouraged from pursuing their creative ideas"

Palworld.

Palworld developer Pocketpair has put out a statement responding to the lawsuit filed against it by Nintendo and The Pokemon Company, and says it'll do its "utmost for fans," and to "ensure that indie game developers are not hindered or discouraged from pursuing their creative ideas."

Yesterday, a news release from Nintendo confirmed that a patent infringement lawsuit has been filed against Palworld's studio which seeks "an injunction against infringement and compensation for damages on the grounds that Palworld, a game developed and released by the Defendant, infringes multiple patent rights." The news release didn't list what patent rights have been allegedly infringed, and Pocketpair claims that it hasn't been informed of such, either.
