Regardless of what is currently going on between PocketPair and Nintendos legal department, the machine that is Palworld doesn’t seem to be stopping. Announced through a press release on their site, Krafton, who is probably best known for their work on PUBG, is bringing Pocketpair’s Palworld to mobile.
“Krafton Inc. (CEO Chang-Han Kim) has signed a licensing agreement with Japanese game developer Pocketpair, Inc. for the intellectual property (IP) of ‘Palworld.'”
This is an interesting development to say the least, given that just on September 18, Pocketpair was put on notice by Nintendo for patient infringement.
No word yet on when exactly Palworld will come to mobile, but I’m sure it will be sooner than later given the speed this game has been on the rise. Palworld originally launched on Xbox and Steam, getting 10 million players on Xbox and selling around 15 million copies on Steam, getting a peak player count of over 2 million there.
It recently shadow dropped on PlayStation as well when it was announced on September 25th. This is pretty impressive since the game is technically in early access on Steam and Preview on Xbox.
