Palworld 1.0 coming in 2026

Robert Newbie · Jan 20, 2026

For those that have played it, is the game fun? I'm intrigued, but I've heard mixed feedback on Palworld's gameplay.

In my opinion, it sure is. A lot of monster catching, boss battles, crafting, ressource-collecting, hunting, etc.
The story is not "predominant" in there, but afaik, there will be more lore in v1.0. There is also a couple of side missions they added in the few latest updates.

If you were into Pokemon but felt like it lacked of gameplay improvement over time, or that it felt "not adult" enough, I suggest you give it a try.

Thanks for the response. What kind of battle system does it have? Is it JRPG, or is it realtime combat?

Real time, open world, with some dungeon system with bosses and ressources. You can control some pals, but for the most parts, you control your human

Ha, that's interesting. Thanks again. I know I had looked up some gameplay footage, but I didn't remember seeing any combat.

Maybe I should put Palworld on my to-do list.

I'm not much into open world or survival games nor Pokemon but I really got addicted on Palworld for a while. Haven't touched since but still. If mixing these concepts seems like a cool idea to you, then it might be worth checking it out.

I'm seeing more and more announcement about Palworld 1.0
I think it's coming soonish (a month? Maybe? I think it should be out by summer)

Does this imply that 2025 and 2020 were not our Pals? I could see why.

Somebody still remembers it?
