Palworld dev's upcoming Metroidvania switches developer credit as it drops a new demo

Palworld developer Pocketpair has dropped a new Steam demo for its upcoming Metroidvania, Never Grave: The Witch and The Curse.

The upcoming game – which, like Pocketpair’s predecessor, is fielding accusations of alleged plagiarism given its striking similarity to another fan-favourite Metroidvania game – doesn’t yet have a release date, but is expected to release in the next three months, offering up to four-player multiplayer.

Unlike Palworld, however, Pocketpair isn’t listed as this game’s developer, only its publisher. Pocketpair was listed as the developer up until three days ago, but after a quick check with SteamDB, it seems this was changed on 25 January 2024.
