Honor of Kings, Tencent’s massively popular mobile game, has its eye set on the international market in 2024.
In part thanks to its success with loot boxes, Honor of Kings has been an enormous financial success for Tencent.
It was the world’s second-highest-grossing mobile game in December, trailing only after Monopoly Go!, according to market research firm Sensor Tower.
As of February 6, Honor of Kings had amassed over 2 million pre-registrations across MENA, Eastern Europe and South Asia.
With its flourishing gaming population, the MENA region will be an important test for Honor of Kings’ second try at global expansion.
The Pokemon Company said Thursday it has not granted any permission to “another company,” referring to viral new game Palworld-developer Pocketpair, to use Pokemon intellectual property or assets and “intends to investigate and take appropriate measures” against the fast-growing survival game operator.
The statement is Pokemon Company’s first acknowledgement of Palworld’s fast-growing survival title, which has sold over 8 million copies in less than six days, exceeding the performance of even the most popular AAA titles.
Pocketpair, which released the title on January 19, insisted earlier that its game had more resemblance to a title such as Ark Survival than Pokemon.
We have not granted any permission for the use of Pokémon intellectual property or assets in that gamem,” The Pokemon Company wrote in a statement on its website Thursday.
“We intend to investigate and take appropriate measures to address any acts that infringe on intellectual property rights related to the Pokémon.
