Welcome to the weekly GI Microcast giving you the latest in video games news. Join James Batchelor and Chris Dring as they give you their take on the biggest stories in video games. Never miss an episode and subscribe to the GI Microcast on all podcasting platforms and YouTube.

This week, the big story is Nintendo and The Pokémon Company are taking legal action against Pocketpair developer Palworld. We dig into why this is not the lawsuit so many consumers expected after the game was originally announced, which patents may be at the centre of this dispute, and the potential motivations behind these two major companies calling on their lawyers.

Elsewhere on this episode, we discuss recent headlines such as EA's investor day, Australia's new rules on in-game gambling imagery and loot boxes, and the return of Flappy Bird. And in What Do The Numbers Mean? we take a deeper look at how well Astro Bot has performed.
