Office Create then said that it’s considering legal action against Planet in order to protect its customers, intellectual property rights and the Cooking Mama series. Planet, however, seems unfazed, responding with a statement on the official Cookstar Twitter account that chalked the issue up to “creative differences” and noting that “there is no active litigation or ruling that prevents Planet from publishing the game.”

So what happens now? If Planet is correct in its assertion that it’s free to publish the game, then we may well see it back on the Switch soon — that was the company’s end goal, of course. But as the game currently stands, that’s unlikely to happen on Office Create’s watch. Unless the two can reach an agreement, the law will likely have to get involved before a final decision is made.
