Palworld Catch, fight, put them to work

A bright open world where your creature friends fight at your side, run your factories and keep the base humming.

Is Palworld worth it?

Palworld is worth it if…

  • you like catching and collecting creatures with different designs and uses
  • you like base building where creatures handle farming and production for you
  • you want a large open world to explore, on foot or riding a Pal
  • you want survival and crafting you can share in co-op or on a larger server

Catch, breed and fight with Pals

Catching and taming Pals is central to play. The Pal roster is large and varied in design. Breeding is part of play too, letting you raise new Pals alongside the ones you catch.

Pals fight alongside you in battle, and you bring guns and bows to the fight as well. The creature collecting will feel familiar to Pokémon fans.

Pals that run the farm and factory

Your farm and factory crews are Pals, covering crop work like planting seeds, watering and harvesting. A Pal placed in a factory keeps working as long as it is fed, which makes factories and production lines a big part of play.

They help with tasks on their own, without orders. Pals come to feel like companions, almost like pets or family.

Build, explore and unlock new tech

Base building is a core part of play. Exploring the large open world is a big part of play.

Mounts cover land, water and air, so Pals carry you across every kind of ground. Technology progression is a big part of play.

Survive poachers and play with friends

Food is scarce in the harsh environment, and Pals must be fed. You can also stand up to a ruthless poaching syndicate and drive it off, giving survival a clear opponent.

Friends can be invited to play together. Shared survival works for a four-player co-op group, while a larger dedicated-server community holds up to 32.

Good to know?

Do Pals help in dungeons?

Yes. Bring Pals along into dangerous dungeon areas for protection, knowing one might give its life to save yours.

Can you get stronger Pals through breeding?

Yes. Offspring inherit characteristics from their parents, so mixing rare Pals is a path to the strongest Pal of all. It gives collectors a reason to keep hunting for better parents.

Can you find rare Pals in sanctuaries?

Yes. Wildlife sanctuaries hold endangered rare Pals, and slipping in unnoticed lets you capture them.
