The mythical beast Palu admits "Nintendo's legal department is too scary": Official announcement on the removal of Poké Ball throwing and gliding wing mechanisms.

Nintendo and the Pokémon Company finally launched the popular stitching monster game "Phantom Beast Palu" at the beginning of this year, which has also become the heavy news in today's game circle. The public is concerned about whether Nintendo's legal department, known as the "strongest legal department in the eastern hemisphere", can win the case again this time. (Synopsis: The story behind the global sale of "Phantom Beast Paru": the re-entrepreneurship of the former largest Japanese exchange Coincheck) (Background supplement: AI-generated game suspected of plagiarizing Pokémon!) Steam launched "Phantom Beast Paru" sold 2 million sets, Nintendo legal is about to sue? The Pokémon-like game "Phantom Beast Palu", played by more than 32 million players around the world, has attracted the attention of players around the world since it was sued by Nintendo last September, and the official did not claim that the lawsuit did not affect the operation of the game, and in November last year announced the revised new content, but recently "Phantom Beast Palu" also announced a new game update, which made the outside world find that it seems to be closely related to Nintendo's lawsuit. "Glider" and "Throwing Pulse Ball" related changes According to the update instructions officially launched on X today (8), in order to cope with future lawsuits, the game producers have to make changes to some existing mechanics and game presentation, but once again, they still believe that these accusations are untrue, and the phantom beast Paru has not infringed any of the plaintiff's registered patents. After the latest version of the v0.5.5 update, the function of using "Paru" as a glider will be removed, and the glider props must be used instead; In addition, the official also stated that in the v0.3.11 version update in November 2024, the way of summoning Paru through "throwing pulse balls" has been canceled, and has been changed to directly recall to the player. These modifications are generally considered to be similar to Nintendo's Pokémon Company's work "Pokémon Saga: Arceus". As a precautionary measure, we have made some specification changes to make it clearer that Palworld does not infringe patents to ensure that we can continue to develop and distribute Palworld under any circumstances, regardless of the progress of litigation This change is also a painful decision for us, but we have decided that in order to continue to develop and distribute "Palworld", it is a necessary measure from the perspective of making it clearer that "Palworld" does not infringe patents. We sincerely apologize to our fans for any anxiety or discomfort that may have been caused. We will continue to do our best to develop "Pal World" and provide new content in order to provide a more enjoyable experience for everyone. Thank you for your continued support. Phantom Beast Palu does not give up revision and development Although Phantom Beast Palu is known as a copy of Pokémon, Salda, Minecraft games, it does capture the hearts of players through some new game mechanics, such as by squeezing and enslaving these cute creatures to enjoy a variety of game fun, such as fighting, building, and cultivation, which is something that traditional Pokémon cannot do, and the game even announced in February that the number of players has exceeded 32 million. This kind of sales performance is also a very good result for Nintendo's Pokémon family. In December last year, a major update was launched, expanding the game map to more than six times the size, and after the Lunar New Year this year, new elements such as Wangcai (Treasure Chest Monster) were introduced, and it can be said that despite the lawsuit, the Phantom Beast Palu official did not want to give up the game update, and has continued to operate stably. Returning online people, considering introducing blockchain? In the part of the number of people online, in addition to the record of more than 2 million people just launched the game, there is also a small return tide at the moment of the December revision, the number of online people has reached nearly 140,000 or so, and the current peak game crowd is only about 25,000 people, but it also shows that as long as the official launch of sincere revisions and game content improvements, the huge base of players still has the opportunity to return. And the president of the official studio's Pocketpair, Takuro Mizobe, was the founder of Japan's secret currency exchange Coincheck in the past, and he was a Bitcoin OG, and the phantom beast Paru was developed and released by him with 1 billion yen out of his own pocket, it can be said that a large part of the game's financial nutrients come from cryptocurrencies. Therefore, the team behind it is evaluating whether it is possible to add blockchain elements as early as the development stage, and according to a Japanese industry insider revealed to the moving area at the end of last year, Pocketpair's operation strategy for the phantom beast Palu is to prioritize maintaining the basic operation of the game, continue to let the number of online people grow at a low standard, and when the time is mature, it may not be ruled out to carry out special revisions such as shopping malls and blockchains.
