For reasons totally unrelated to the release of Monster Hunter Wilds, Palworld developer Pocketpair has given its team a "special holiday" today, 28th February. Watch on YouTube"On 28th February, we received a series of puzzling reports from many employees that they might feel unwell the next day, so we decided to institute a special holiday for the company," the memo said (as translated by Google).
