Unfortunately for Pocketpair, the latest news that we have been able to read about Palworld have not been entirely positive, especially after Nintendo filed a lawsuit for infringement of Pokémon intellectual property. Although at first we thought it was due to the shape of the Pals, the truth is that the company's demand focused more on the patent for the “Pokeball.”
To this we must add the fact that a game designer himself admitted that the CEO of Pocketpair demanded that the team make designs as close as possible to the Pokémon themselves, in order to generate even more interest among people. However, it seems that there is better news for the studio now, and not because Nintendo has reconsidered its lawsuit. According to recent information, it seems that Palworld for mobile will be a reality.
Krafton Inc. will be in charge of the mobile version of Palworld
As we have been able to read from the hand of GematsuKrafton, the owners of PUBG Studios or Tango Gameworks, have announced that they have reached an agreement with Pocketpair to order the mobile version of Palworld. In it release where the company has confirmed the news, they assure that they will try to “reimagine and adapt the main elements of Palworld gameplay to a mobile environment.”

There is no doubt that this is fantastic news for Pocketpair's interests, since the mobile market is currently one of the largest in the industry, and one that generates the most profits. Palworld's debut on mobile phones could serve to change course that the company had had since Nintendo's lawsuit was made known, and serve as a push to get closer to the numbers they achieved in their debut.
For now, there is no news on when the mobile version of Palworld would be available. However, we will probably have to wait a few years until this one is available. It remains to be seen whether Pocketpair has emerged unscathed from its lawsuit with Nintendo by then.
