Palworld is a popular monster catching and survival game that has sold over 5 million copies since its release. However, the game’s developers have received death threats from upset Pokémon fans who believe the monster designs have been plagiarized from Pokémon. The CEO of Palworld’s studio addressed these threats on Twitter, asking people to stop harassing the development team. While some clear similarities exist between Palworld and Pokémon monsters, the future of the game still looks bright if technical issues can be resolved and new content added over time. Overall, Palworld seems to have found great commercial success, but its popularity has also led to some unfortunate harassment of its creators from a minority of Pokémon fans.
