Pocketpair’s latest game, Palworld, has achieved remarkable success, amassing over one million sales in just eight hours. The game, available for PC and Xbox Series X/S, has also been added to the Game Pass lineup and drawn a staggering peak of over 462,000 simultaneous players on the Steam platform.
A Surreal Adventure with Pals
Imagined as an outlandish twist on the classic Pokemon concept, Palworld invites players to traverse an extensive chain of islands while capturing and employing creatures known as Pals. These Pals not only participate in combat but also engage in laborious tasks such as crafting, cooking, and resource acquisition. The game features more mature themes as well, delving into darker activities like human capture and the slaughter of creatures.

Further details on these updates are anticipated in the near future.
