Palworld Developer Surprise Launches Another Game on Nintendo Switch Despite Lawsuit

Pocketpair's Surprise Nintendo Switch Release Amidst Ongoing Lawsuit

Pocketpair, the developer embroiled in a legal battle with Nintendo and The Pokémon Company, unexpectedly launched its 2019 title, OverDungeon, on the Nintendo eShop. This action card game, blending tower defense and roguelike elements, marks Pocketpair's first Nintendo Switch release. The launch, announced without prior warning, coincided with a 50% discount running until January 24th.

The company's decision to release OverDungeon on the Nintendo eShop, while Palworld is available on PS5 and Xbox, has sparked online speculation, with some suggesting it's a strategic response to the ongoing lawsuit. This lawsuit, filed in September 2024, alleges that Palworld's Pal Spheres infringe on Pokémon's creature-capturing patents. Despite the controversy, Palworld continues to receive updates and recently enjoyed a surge in players following a significant December update.
