Then we see players using that not-Wooloo as a sobbing shield and firing a rocket launcher for wholesale destruction.ĭeveloper PocketPair - which also released the very strange survival action game Craftopia - is pretty cheeky in its description of Palworld on Steam. We see players sheering flocks of not-Wooloo and breeding a not-Gyarados with a not-Arcanine for an all-new kind of not-Pokémon. Palworld’s trailer is all over the place, in the best way possible. It gets darker players can also exploit their Pals for labor, putting them to work in the fields, grinding grain, and, of course, mass-manufacturing assault rifles. Players can enlist Pals to do construction, ride them across vast terrain, and even use them as mobile cover in gunfights. This is a game where players explore, craft, build, and wage war, all aided by Pokémon-like creatures called Pals. Palworld’s debut trailer shows a captivating dichotomy of ideas. Palworld is more than just a multiplayer survival-style shooter, it’s also heavily inspired by Pokémon. You are the author of your story.On Saturday, developer PocketPair unveiled Palworld, an open-world survival game with a twist. Be a protector of the Pals or a wanted poacher.

Palworld is a game where you, the player, live a slow life with the Pals that populate the place. Palworld has online multiplayer as well, so you can do all of these things with a friend, or fight other players for whatever reason. Alternatively, you can also hunt down Pals for food or capture the rare protected ones. It is your job to protect the Pals and take down the poachers. Your main source of conflict in this game are poachers: people who hunt down Pals for food or capture the rare ones for money. As the Steam store page says: “Don’t worry labor laws won’t be applied to Pals.” In fact, the game encourages you to do it. Your factories can be fully manned by Pals, so production will always continue as long as you feed them. Rather than doing all of these things alone, Pals will be able to help you with various asks, making it almost automated. When building, farming, or fighting, Pals will become your best friend. Unlike in pokemon, however, you can do way, way more with your Pals. Players can capture these pals, and raise them just like in Pokemon. Pals, cute and adorable monsters, roam the land freely. The player can do all of these things, but they don’t have to do it alone.

You can even build factories to mass-produce items that you might need. Exploration is also a key component of the game, as the world has dungeons ripe for exploring. Players must also gather food by means of farming, fishing, or hunting (although this has a downside we will get to later). They do so by gathering resources such as trees and rock, then building a shelter with them. As with most games in this genre, the player’s main goal is to survive.

Palworld is a third-person open-world survival sandbox game. There is no news yet on whether or not this will release on other platforms. Keep reading to learn more about Palworld, its release date, gameplay, and story. If that sounds interesting to you, then this game is for you. Now imagine equipping them with guns, and making them work in factories. Imagine a world where you gather resources, build bases, and catch adorable creatures ala Pokemon.
