Unauthorized PokeWorld NFT Game Faces Legal Action

 

The collectible NFT blockchain game, PokeWorld, is being sued by The Pokemon Company International for trademark infringement.

The NFT game is made by Australian-based creators under “Pokemon PTY LTD” and Kotiota Studios”. The legal documents, filed in December 2022, cite multiple breaches of legislation over the launch and advertisement of the PokeWorld NFT game.

According to reports, Kotiota Studios had been advertising the game for several months, claiming it was an official “play to earn” game featuring Pokemon that players could collect as digital pets. 

The company showed off digital 3D models and 2D art of Pokemon, including Pikachu. It claimed to have worked on other Pokemon titles in the past, including Pokemon Scarlet and Violet and Pokemon Sleep. However, Pokemon Company International denies these claims and has stated that Kotiota was never a contractor for the company....Related post.....
