Pocketpair, the developer of the action-adventure survival game Palworld, is contesting a patent infringement lawsuit filed by Nintendo in September 2024. In its defense, Pocketpair argues that Nintendo's claims are invalid by citing the existence of multiple prior video games that feature similar mechanics without facing legal challenges. These games include Monster Hunter, Fallout, Titanfall 2, Ark: Survival Evolved, Final Fantasy 14, Tomb Raider, and even titles from Nintendo itself such as The Legend of Zelda. Pocketpair maintains that these precedents undermine Nintendo's patent claims against Palworld.
