Palworld may be played online or by 32 players in a single server. Launched in 2024, the game was first announced in 2021. It is available via a pre-release version for Windows, Xbox One and Xbox Series S/X.

Overview Palworld
Palworld allows you to explore the Palpagos Islands in an open world from the perspective of a Third-Person avatar. Like other survival games players must also manage hunger levels, build basic tools and gather materials. They can even create bases that act as rapid travel point. Through the “Technology Tree,” the player can unlock new weaponry, decorations and other items.
Pals are over 100 different creatures that inhabit these islands. Pals can be captured using Pal Spheres by engaging in direct combat. Pals may also be purchased on the black market by the NPCs and traded between players. Every Pal comes with a partner skill that allows for further versatility by transforming them into mounts or weapons.
Syndicate Thugs is the name of the human enemy and antagonists in the game. The leaders of the Syndicate, who reside in Towers located on all islands, are strong Pal trainers. These are the game’s main boss battles.
Development Palworld
Pocket Pair, a independently-owned Shinagawa company in Tokyo, is developing and publishing Palworld. The project is their second survival open-world game, the first being Craftopia. The game uses gameplay elements reminiscent of The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild as well as Minecraft. However, the Pokemon-inspired creature collection mechanics are also included.
Pocket Pair’s team has denied that Pokemon is their inspiration. Takuro Mizobe is the CEO at Pocket Pair. According to him, Palworld was inspired by Ark: Survival Evolved. This game also featured dinosaurs as monsters. Rust’s survival mechanics were used, while Dragon Quest influenced creature design. It was decided early on that the game would be developed using Unreal Engine instead of Unity, which powered all Pocket Pair’s previous projects.

The game will be revealed in June 2021. It includes key features like Multiplayer and survival. Over the next few years, Pocket Pair shared more information about the game. It was shown at Tokyo Game Show and The Summer Game Fest. Pocket Pair also announced the launch of the game on Xbox in addition to the PC.
