Japanese game developer Level-5, the studio behind popular franchises like Inazuma Eleven and Yo-kai Watch, put out a formal statement warning against the piracy of their video games.
In the announcement, the company said it had confirmed cases of unauthorized reproduction and distribution of their games happening across “certain online communities.” Level-5 made clear that it would pursue legal action against anyone found committing copyright infringement, which covers reproducing, modifying, editing, distributing, or selling their game software without permission. The company did not name any specific platforms or individuals involved in the violations.

Around the same time, a fan-made project had been gaining attention online. Announced on May 10 through an account on X (which has since been removed), the project was described as a full unofficial Spanish remake of Yo-kai Watch 2, built from the ground up in Unity and planned for release on Switch, mobile, PC, and VR. The announcement drew interest from both international and Japanese fans, though it also received strong criticism from the Japanese side of the community due to concerns over its legal standing.
Given the timing of the warning from Level-5 and the disappearance of the original poster’s account, the chances of the remake moving forward appear very slim.
