Palworld Developer's Warning About Fake Game Apps

The appearance of fake Palworld apps on mobile platforms is not too surprising, because the original game on PC and Xbox achieved resounding commercial success with 8 million copies sold in just 6 days since the release of the Early Access version.

However, Palworld is also one of the most controversial titles in recent times. Pocketpair once revealed that their employees received many death threats after being accused of 'copying' Pokémon. Nintendo also requested the removal of a Pokémon mod in Palworld , and The Pokémon Company also issued a statement: "We intend to investigate and take appropriate measures to address any infringement of intellectual property rights related to Pokémon."

Meanwhile, Palworld is still exploding on Steam, becoming the second most played game in the platform's history.
