While the game has been shattering records, there’s been some comparisons to Pokemon, and it appears the company has heard the concerns.
Here’s what they had to say.

The unique RPG is packed filled with content for players to dive into, and it’s simply been a joy to see how the game has been taking off in popularity as much as it has.

So, The Pokemon Company has released the following statement, noting that they’re going to dive into the game and see if it deserves any attention.
“We have received many inquiries regarding another company’s game released in January 2024. We have not granted any permission for the use of Pokémon intellectual property or assets in that game. We intend to investigate and take appropriate measures to address any acts that infringe on intellectual property rights related to the Pokémon. We will continue to cherish and nurture each and every Pokémon and its world, and work to bring the world together through Pokémon in the future.”
