“Incredibly detailed”, “hyper captivating”: the video game “Pokemon with Guns” is a hit but makes Pokémon fans angry

The game released Friday on the online gaming platform Steam mixes weapon-wielding player avatars with monsters that closely resemble those from Nintendo’s “Pokemon” game.

“Most people, myself included, thought this game was going to be a meme” (humorous parody), we can read in a review left on Steam by the Pirate Software account. “But actually it’s incredibly detailed, really well designed and super captivating.”

Another player said he was “blown away” by Palworld, saying the game has enough potential to become “legendary.”

Palworld is available in a test version on Steam, for $27, and the Japanese studio continues to develop it with the help of player feedback.

On social networks, PocketPair is regularly accused of having copied Pokemon characters and having integrated them into this survival and combat game, Palworld.

“Pokémon fans, who are angry at this game and demand that it be banned for one reason or another, should instead blame Nintendo for missing out on a market that has been untapped for years,” perhaps we read in a comment on X. “This shows how much PC players wanted a Pokemon game on PC”.

Palworld features more than 100 different characters called “Pals” that players can capture and turn into allies for their in-game adventures, according to the publisher.

The description further states that users can fight with weapons ranging from classic bows and spears to assault rifles and rocket launchers. Players have the option to team up or compete against each other, and even steal items.
