In the game, players can use guns to capture and train cute creatures known as “pals”.The Pokemon Company said in January it would investigate and take action over any infringement of intellectual property rights.
Pocketpair in July announced the establishment of a joint venture company, Palworld Entertainment Inc, in collaboration with Sony Music Entertainment and Aniplex Inc to promote the licensing business of Palworld globally. — Reuters
