Can you believe it’s already been a year since Palworld made its early access debut? Time does fly! While the initial buzz around the game—the one that’s famously been dubbed “Pokemon with guns”—might have mellowed, it hasn’t exactly been dormant. Despite hitting a little speed bump with a lawsuit from the Pokemon Company and Nintendo, the team has soldiered on, delivering steady updates for their fans. Most recently, they unveiled a roadmap on their official Twitter account outlining exciting future developments, some of which include highly-requested features straight from the players themselves.
Among the big-ticket items slated for the future, the game will soon introduce co-op crossplay, which is bound to enhance the multiplayer experience. Additionally, players will eventually have the ability to transfer their Pals between worlds—a feature that’s been eagerly awaited. An epic Final Boss fight and a concluding storyline are also in the works, promising to ramp up the excitement. Not to mention, we’ll see new ways to bolster your Pals, plus the introduction of new Pals and technology to the game. Interestingly, there are hints of multiple collaborations in the pipeline, beyond the previously announced Terraria partnership. Additionally, players can look forward to overall improvements, including enhancements to base Pals, user experience, and world object placements.
You’re probably itching to know when all these updates will hit the game, right? Well, the exact timing remains a mystery. The roadmap simply serves as a sneak peek into what’s brewing behind the scenes, so we’ll just have to wait and see when these are finally rolled out. On a fun note, Palworld is hosting its first global popularity poll. It’s a chance for you to vote for your favorite Pal—I’ve got my money on that adorable Totoro look-alike brandishing a gatling gun!
