Palworld is still going strong after an explosive debut last January. With its year anniversary, developer Pocketpair has outlined what to expect in 2025 from the game.
On X, the official Palworld account shared a brief look at what’s coming in future updates. The Pokemon-styled game will be bringing in cooperative crossplay, meaning that players on other platforms can play with each other.
Crossplay’s popularity in other games has been a massive boon to players since it was adopted widely in the last few years. Before this, each console and PC platform was relatively locked off from each other.
Everything coming to Palworld in future updates
Here’s everything that Pocketpair intends to add to the game over the coming months and weeks:
- CO-OP Crossplay
- World Transfers for Pals
- Final Boss / Ending Scenario
- Further ways to strengthen and improve Pals
- Various new content such as new Pals and technologies
- Game Collaborations (Including Terraria)
- Improvements to world object placement
- Improvements to base Pals
- Improvements to optimization
- Improvements to [user experience]
Palworld will get its last boss in future update
It’ll also be creating a final boss and “ending scenario”, something the game is currently missing due to its early access nature.
Rather than waiting to release the game in full with scheduled updates, Pocketpair – much like its other games – released an “unfinished” version to gain momentum and most importantly, cash.
The gambit worked, as the game has generated millions of dollars in revenue. It also partnered with Microsoft, launching the game on Xbox Game Pass on day one.
However, its closeness to Pokemon ruffled feathers. After extensive digging by Pokemon fans to see whether or not the game pulled assets from Game Freak’s baby. Instead, Nintendo sued the company late last year over patent infringement.
The update from Pocketpair doesn’t detail how they’re navigating any changes that need to be made.
