Very unlikely to be Palworld related, but the lack of ethics on their part, which resulted in them attacking those Devs is certainly the reason.

They have targeted good, talented people many times, whilst at the same time churning out low quality, buggy games, which are aimed mostly at kids (no offence intended toward any older gamers)

Sony abused the law many times years back and had good talented people imprisoned and or/work shut down, they suffered for it (but still ultimately got away with everything they did)

Yeah sure why not.

Reminder that there are hundreds, if not thousands, of gaming companies that are infinitely worse than them, but no one ever touches them. This was simply a hacking target with a vulnerability they could exploit. Any reasoning behind it other than “because we can” is simply useless and insulting. It’s why it’s not uncommon at all for hackers to target hospitals.

Calling BS on the next Pokemon game being a dual release. Game Freak could barely get Scarlet and Violet to run on the Switch, and unless they've genuinely rethought their approach, the next gen is also going to be Bigger and Better (with the same amount of dev time). Why would they split their limited time to compete with themselves on a system that will have more of a requirement for them to actually optimise the game?

This leaker probably just saw what happened with BOTW and figured this was also a safe bet. But BOTW had already been announced as coming to Wii U, and had the resources to keep that promise. GameFreak has no such obligation or reason to do that.

Wonder how Satoshi Tajiri and Ken Sugimori will react to this?

Jokes aside, I'm sure we can also get source codes for their non-Pokémon games from this leak, like the one on my profile pic.

That's not fair, i like gf and their hard work they put in their aaa quality games should be respected, not like this

You call Scarlet and Violet an AAA quality game? It was filled with bugs at launch and you call that an AAA game? Come on...

You proved that you're siding with us and not with Game Freak's mediocre works. Great job!

You can tell he was just being sarcastic. Scarlet and Violet has actually been improved after listening to the community's feedback, although a few bugs exist, it's relatively stable.

Anything Gen 1? It would be great some early front sprites.

Yeah still waiting, its already 21gb of leak

I love that it was a phishing scam. Of all the people that should know better than to fill out a form full of personal details in the hope of securing a sexy Russian bride, you’d think someone working in the industry would be wiser. Great of Gamefreak to support the community though, given their recent behaviour.

if a leaker wanted "revenge" for Palworld then Gen 10 alongside PLZA would've been leaked out online

I read somewhere that a playable pokemon za version is in the leak. Is this real?
