The ongoing legal battle between the Nintendo & The Pokemon Company team and Palworld developer Pocketpair may be heating up, but development of new content for Palworld isn't slowing down. Now, the company has announced a surprise collaboration with Terraria that will happen in 2025.
]]>The nominees for The Game Awards were revealed earlier this week, and some Palworld fans are upset that the game didn't nab a single one.
]]>Palworld developer Pocketpair has provided an update on the ongoing legal action between it and the combination of Nintendo and The Pokemon Company, which claims to reveal the exact patents that the game about pals has been accused of infringing upon.
]]>You know Palworld? That game that recently got a PS5 port and definitely had nothing else of note happen involving it? Well, developer Pocketpair has signed a licensing agreement with Krafton for a mobile version of it to be made.
]]>After launching on Xbox and PC back in January 2024, Pocketpair has finally brought monster-collector Palworld to PS5.
]]>Nintendo has filed a lawsuit against Pocketpair over Palworld, but one expert isn't sure the Mario maker has enough to win.
]]>UPDATE (19/09/24, 10:00 AM BST): Pocketpair has issued a statement on the lawsuit filing via Palworld's official Twitter account. It reads as follows:
]]>Those of you worried that Palworld will go the full live-service route likely don't need to be, as developer Pocketpair has no plans to make it free-to-play.
]]>A PS5 port of Palworld - that hit from earlier this year that got everyone realky into or really angry about the idsrea of Pokemon with guns for a hot minute - has been the subject of speculation for a good while now. The latyest potential hint that it could actually be coming? A listing for this year's Tokyo Game Show.
]]>As I write this, Black Myth: Wukong, the action adventure from China’s Game Science studio, is the most played game on Steam by player count. There are currently 1,400,932 players in-game (with a peak of 1,443,570), surpassing the likes of Counter-Strike 2, Dota 2, PUBG and all the usual games that occupy Steam’s top five.
]]>Unsurprisingly, Palworld is making a whole bunch of money, but that doesn't mean PocketPair is suddenly going to switch to triple-a games.
]]>Pocketpair, the studio behind Palworld - that controversial hit from earlier this year that turned everyone into armchair lawyers for a hot minute - has announced it's teaming up with Sony Music and Aniplex for a joint venture aimed at expanding the game's reach. How? Well, at least in part by selling things.
]]>While there were plenty of armchair lawyers and some actual lawyers who were convinced that Palworld would end up in hot water with Pokemon and Nintendo due to percieved similarities between its pals and, well, Pokemon, PocketPair's CEO has suggested that the studio is yet to recieve any formal indication of planned legal action from those parties.
]]>Palworld isn't currently available on PlayStation, but a tweet from the game's community manager appears to be hinting its arrival.
]]>It has just been announced at Summer Game Fest 2024 that Palworld is getting a massive update with a lot of new content.
]]>Fresh off of a slightly unoriginal April Fools gag, Palworld, that thing everyone couldn’t stop talking about before they couldn’t stop talking about Helldivers 2 has just recieved a fresh update. While the big thing is the arrival of the game's first raid boss, the patch'll also let you further embrace your own evil bossdom.
]]>As if Palworld could be any less original, Pocketpair has released a trailer for a dating sim based on the Pokemon with guns game.
]]>You. Yes, you. You know, Palworld, that thing everyone couldn’t stop talking about before they couldn’t stop talking about Helldivers 2? Well, it’s now set to receive its first raid battle update, and naturally, you’re gonna be tasked with defeating (checks notes) an evil lady who probably shops at Hot Topic.
]]>Palworld is slightly struggling with cheaters at the moment, which developer Pocketpair has acknowledged it's failed to deal with so far.
]]>It's been quite the year for survival games so far. Not even two months have passed in 2024 and not only have we had Palworld skyrocket past all expectations as one of the biggest releases in years, but we've also got Nightingale coming to Early Access in a matter of days, while older games like No Man's Sky, Rust, and Valheim continue to thrive. In spite of steep competition, Aaryn Flynn, the CEO of Inflexion Games - the developer behind Nightingale - believes the pool's big enough for everyone.
]]>Good news, that special Xbox podcast that’ll see Phil Spencer and co give us all an update on the console maker’s future plans is set to take place later today, February 15. As you’d expect, Microsoft staff were given their own update last week, via a meeting which reportedly included enough Palworld to genuinely surprise people.
]]>Look, since Palworld took off, you’ve probably assumed that its creatures would soon soon spawn slightly weird looking merch that may, but probably doesn’t, have the actual blessing of the game’s creators, just as Pokemon’s gang of critters has done for years now. Sorry, but I think you need to actually see some of them.
]]>Inspired by a Reddit post (what else?) a Palworld player has managed to breed close to 2000 of the game’s missile-wielding dinosaur Pals and cause about as much chaos as that meteor that wiped out the T-rexes and Diplodocuses of our own world.
]]>To the surprise of probably no one, Palworld developer Pocketpair is struggling to keep up with the game's success, so it's looking to bring on more staff.
]]>Yes, you’ve read the headline. A key part of Palworld is forcing your Pals to get together and stick on some Marvin Gaye. The game’s latest patch fixes an issue that could cause breeding Pals to succumb to a deathlike state of perma-sleep.
]]>It turns out that Palworld being popular enough to bring in 19 million players means that server costs are pretty high.
]]>Palworld developer PocketPair has released a new patch today, fixing a major bug that allowed people to catch and steal pals from other players. In addition, the game will no longer crash and ruin your save file if you catch over 7,000 pals. Good news for aspiring Pal hoarders out there.
]]>There are now officially more Palworld players than competitive dog groomers worldwide. We think. We’re not too versed in such things; however, we are sure that player numbers are 19 million strong and growing.
]]>If you’re looking for ways to spice up your Palworld experience and happen to be fond of a little Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater, you should probably check out what one player has gotten up to with a Chillet they’ve managed to nab.
]]>Palworld has had an exceptional launch. The monster-collecting meets survival-crafting game has garnered millions of sales and managed to rise to the top of the Steam charts, surpassing Counter-Strike 2’s all-time player peak, which is quite the feat.
]]>After a stratospheric launch, Palworld now boasts millions of dedicated players and a peak player count that finally knocked Counter-Strike 2 from Steam’s top perch. This monster-collecting meets survival-crafting game is almost endlessly interesting, letting you arm your Pals with guns as you battle and build your way through the Palpagos Islands.
]]>If you were wondering whether it's possible to play Palworld with just your mind, one streamer has proven that yes, you can!
]]>Palworld blends monster-collecting with survival-crafting, allowing you to capture a Paldeck of over 100+ Pals which you can then put to work across your bases. As you leave your Pals to build your empire for you, you’ll be exploring the Palpagos Islands and seeing what other Pals to add to your roster, and one that you should certainly seek out is Astegon.
]]>Palworld has finally landed on Steam and Xbox Game Pass, allowing you to complete a Paldeck full of over 100 Pals before setting the cute creatures loose to work on your base. Whether you want to start a peaceful farm or some sort of capitalist empire, Palworld has room for it, but to do either of those things you’ll want plenty of Ancient Civilisation Parts.
]]>Palworld is all about the survival of you and your Pals, and for that, you’re going to need to start your own empire on the Palpagos Islands. Pals work tirelessly for you as you explore everything the world has to offer, but you will also find some resources your Pals can’t necessarily gather for you, such as Ore.
]]>Palworld has a diverse Paldeck brimming with over 100 different Pals for you to capture, put to work or fight alongside. And, of course, this monster-collecting meets survival-crafting game has a handful of Legendary Pals for you to seek out and add to your collection too.
]]>If you’ve spent some time crafting and collecting Pals in Palworld, you might be aware of a handful of Legendary Pals that reside on the Palpagos Islands. These powerful Pals are hidden across the corners of the map waiting to be caught, and one such Pal is Frostallion.
]]>In Palworld, you explore the Palpagos Islands, which are home to over 100 species of Pals for you to pad out your Paldeck with. This includes a handful of Legendary Pals that have some impressive Partner Skills and can simultaneously be used as powerful mounts. One that you’ll definitely want to keep your eyes peeled for is Jetragon.
]]>Popular modding site Nexus Mods has confirmed that it’s not a big fan of the idea of hosting Pokemon-themed mods for Palworld that could well attract negative attention from Nintendo’s legal department.
]]>Following what feels like years worth of debate on social media and in other places about Palworld and the fact that some aspects of it are a bit similar to Pokemon, the company responsible for the latter has issued a statement acknowledging it. Well, sort of.
]]>Palworld boasts over 100 Pals to find, capture, and put to work on your base. As is always the case with monster-collectors, some of these Pals are better than others, but every single Pal in Palworld has something you can make use of. From their resource drops to their Partner Skills, these Pals are more than just hard workers.
]]>As you explore the Palpagos Islands and capture dozens of Pals in Palworld, you’ll want to start putting them to work and farming for resources so your base can become a Pal empire. With that in mind, there are some specific Pals you’ll want to capture, farm, or have working for you due to their resource drops and work suitability.
]]>Palworld includes a varied roster of monsters, called a Paldeck, featuring over 100 Pals to find and capture as you strive to build an empire powered by the adorable creatures. One popular monster that players have been on the hunt for is Anubis, whose likeness your base's Statue of Power is based on.
]]>Believe it or not, when you capture a bunch of Pals and begin putting them to work in Palworld, they can quite easily become unwell. While it's easy to be a neglectful Pal tamer and shove any weakened Pals back into the Palbox, you can actually treat your poorly Pals' status effects.
]]>When you first step foot on the Palpagos Islands in Palworld, knowing where to set up your base of operations can be an overwhelming decision. There are so many great-looking spots of land for you to choose from, but you never know how practical they'll actually be until you actually start to use them! Fortunately for those who have a change of heart later down the line, you can move your base in Palworld.
]]>Good news, people who like Palworld (there seem to be quite a lot of you). Pocketpair has revealed what its plans for the game when it comes to future updates look like, with the likes of PvP, raid bosses, and crossplay all being on the list.
]]>As if the very popular, but also very controversial Palworld wasn’t becoming inescapable enough for those of us who have to use the internet on a daily basis, it’s quickly becoming a very potent source of both Call of Duty and Fortnite-esque trickshots and the kinds of launches Skyrim’s giants are infamous for.
]]>If you’re looking for a way to get a leg up in the very popular, but also very controversial Palworld, a new glitch that’s been uncovered by players will let you work a bit of magic to capture some powerful tower boss Pals - and their human riders.
]]>How to hatch Palworld eggs is something Pocketpair just sort of assumes you know, but like making nails and most other intermediate activities, incubating eggs follows a specific process. It’s yet another drain on your hard-won resources, but it’s also worth the effort. Hatching Pal eggs is a quick way to add rare Pals to your party and even bump up the next generation’s stats.
]]>How to get nails in Palworld is something you’ll need to figure out early on if you want better crafting stations, but like pretty much everything else in Palworld, you’re left to put the pieces together on you’re own.
]]>Millions of players around the world are playing Palworld on Steam and Xbox Game Pass, enticed by its unique mixture of monster-collecting, survival-crafting, and high-powered automatic weaponry. But before your Pals can wield guns, you will have to spend a hefty amount of time grinding to unlock and craft all sorts of items.
]]>Palworld lets you arm the adorable monsters that you collect with some powerful weaponry, and there’s nothing quite like witnessing Tanzee - a small, green monkey Pal - roam around with an assault rifle. With that in mind, if you want your Pals to blast through foes, you’ll need plenty of High Quality Pal Oil.
]]>Throughout Palworld, you will be spending much of your time collecting and capturing Pals before setting them to work on your base for you. While your Pals are hard at work, however, you want to make sure that they’re getting plenty of rest and are being well-fed.
]]>Palworld is packed with items and structures for you and your diligent, hard-working Pals to craft, but some of these structures will be locked behind the Technology Tree. What’s more is that not all items are locked behind your usual Technology Points either; some require Ancient Technology Points.
]]>Palworld is certainly an interesting game, allowing players to build up their own capitalist empires run solely on the sheer energy and determination of the cute creatures they've captured. Even with dozens of Pals by your side, however, you won’t be free from farming resources.
]]>A fresh update to the very popular, but also very controversial Palworld for Xbox and Microsoft Store-bought PC copies aims to stop the game’s app from grinding to a halt upon startup - leaving players staring at a black screen.
]]>Palworld has finally arrived on Steam and Xbox Game Pass, bringing with it a full Paldeck of monsters to collect and train. It's kind of like a blend of Pokemon and Ark: Survival Evolved, where you not only capture Pals as you strive to complete the Paldeck, but build your very own self-sustaining Pal-powered empire at the same time.
]]>Amid the ongoing controversy around the very popular Palworld, a former Chief Legal Officer for The Pokémon Company has had his say on the game, arguing that it “looks like the usual ripoff nonsense” he’d often deal with while in that role.
]]>Palworld has taken the world by storm, snagging more than 3 million sales since its launch on Steam and Xbox Game Pass. This monster-collector whisks you off to the open world of the Palpagos Islands where you must battle and craft your way to success, which isn’t so bad when you have a whole horde of Pals to help you build a paradise.
]]>Palworld finally launched on Steam and Xbox Game Pass, giving players the ‘Pokemon with guns’ that they’d always hoped for. While it’s a little grindy in places, there’s no denying that watching Tanzee go to town on some Syndicates with an AK is rather amusing.
]]>Palworld has certainly taken the world by storm, with millions of players flocking to get a taste of its familiar formula where you collect a team of powerful monsters, explore a rich open world and set your Pals to work building your base.
]]>Palworld boasts a huge, open world where you can battle and capture Pals that you can then recruit to work on your base or battle alongside you. That said, even with Pals working your base, you’ll still often need to venture out and gather some resources yourself.
]]>Palworld has blasted onto Steam and Xbox Game Pass, allowing players to build entire empires run by the Pals they have captured and collected. If you’re enjoying yourself, there’s further good news, as Palworld can be played in the company of friends, too.
]]>It's not even been a week, and yet Palworld is already getting a Pokemon mod, as if the game didn't resemble the series enough as it is.
]]>Despite only releasing last Friday, Palworld already has a VR mod, letting you get up close and personal with the "Pokemon with guns" game.
]]>Palworld is gaming’s latest and most eye-catching survival-crafting adventure. Set in a wild open world where you catch and tame monsters before nurturing their abilities, battling them with other creatures, and setting them to work in your factories, Palworld is surprisingly deep, full of resources to collect and a lot of mindless fun.
]]>Palworld has very quickly proven successful, shooting up the rankings of Steam's top played games, leaving it behind only one other paid game in terms of player count.
]]>The studio behind the very popular, but also equally controversial Palworld has told players that its development team is aware of and working on fixing the array of “serious bugs” that’ve cropped up in it so far.
]]>"Pokemon with guns" game Palworld is quickly racking up sales, though as the game shoots up in popularity, it has been met with accusations of plagiarism.
]]>Palworld was released during the wee hours today, and within eight hours, it was purchased over one million times.
]]>Palworld combines monster-collecting with survival-crafting, allowing you to capture an abundance of Pals and put them to work gathering resources and tending to your base for you. While you always have to make sure all of your Pals are well-fed and rested, you can also take them into some tough battles with you.
]]>Palworld dropped last week on Steam and Xbox Game Pass, allowing you to collect monsters to your heart's content and create your own gun-manufacturing workshop using them. It’s a little wacky, and definitely not for the faint of heart, but there’s certainly something amusing about watching Pals wield guns and fight tough battles.
]]>Palworld has launched on Steam and Xbox Game Pass, allowing players to live out their capitalist fantasies with factories entirely run by Pals you have captured and collected. It’s definitely a bizarre concept, but many of us can’t deny that we have wondered, at least once, what ‘Pokemon but dark’ would look like.
]]>Palworld has finally launched in Early Access, providing players with a blend of the survival-crafting genre with monster-collecting. It allows players to capture Pals galore and turn their bases into factories or sweatshops run by said Pals, and, well, it's definitely a unique experience.
]]>Palworld answers the age-old question of ‘what if Pokemon, but with guns?’ and it definitely makes for some amusing in-game encounters as a result. Yet, while you capture endless Pals and put them to work, you’ll also have to do a little work yourself when it comes to collecting resources and building up your base.
]]>Palworld has blasted onto both Steam and Xbox Game Pass, boasting a blend between monster-collecting and survival-crafting. As you capture Pals and set them to work across your base, or take them into battle with you, you will want to make sure you’re looking after them as best as you can.
]]>Palworld has blasted into Early Access and will join Xbox Game Pass as well as being available on Steam. It’s pretty good fun, if you’ve always dreamed of giving Pokemon some guns to wield during a particularly tough battle, that is. However, Palworld not only answers the question ‘what if Pokemon, but dark and edgy?’, but also gives you tons of new and familiar ways to interact with amazing creatures.
]]>Palworld has blasted onto Steam and Xbox Game Pass and has already sold over 3 million copies. Blending monster-collecting with the survival-crafting genre, and all in all, it’s good fun. After all, most of us have wondered at least once what equipping Pokemon with weapons would be like, and Palworld has answered that question for us.
]]>Palworld has arrived with its Paldeck of over 100 Pals to collect while you try to survive and craft your way up across its archipelago of islands. As you get started, you’ll find yourself using stone tools to acquire resources and get to work on your base, and with weapon degradation present, you’ll find that they can wear quite quickly.
]]>Palworld is blasting onto the monster-collecting scene, blending those mechanics with the survival-crafting genre to bring you a game in which you can start your own capitalist empire with Pals as your gun-wielding, hard-working employees.
]]>Palworld has arrived, promising some rambunctious, slightly violent fun amidst monster-collecting. While you strive to build up a self-sufficient base that is powered by the hard work of your Pals, you can also hand them guns and hope they aid you in combat rather than turn on you.
]]>Since Palworld was first shown off, plenty of folk described the game as ‘Pokemon with guns’, and that’s not exactly a stretch. One look at the Tokyo Game Show trailer for the game and you’ll quite clearly see Pal designs (those are the creatures you’ll be collecting) that are akin to fan-favourite Pokemon, albeit wielding AK’s and other weaponry.
]]>Xbox has taken the cover off the next batch of titles coming to Game Pass as January draws to a close and we kick on into February (don’t worry the speed at which time moves scares me too).
]]>Palworld is the upcoming monster-collector that is promising the more mature, shooter-loving Pokemon fans an absolute blast. If you’ve ever wanted to arm your Pokemon with machine guns and send them to do labour for you, Palworld looks to be exactly that.
]]>Palworld has been given a shiny new trailer during the Summer Game Fest, with a January 2024 release window being announced for the game. Now, if you’re wondering what Palword even is, let me give you a brief introduction: it’s Pokemon with machine guns. Lots of them.
