Palworld is all set to hit the shelves and the controversial game is already generating a lot of interest online. Taking inspiration from the famous Pokemon franchise, this monster-catching game allows players to find and befriend cute little creatures known as Pals.
Although the game looks like Pokemon in ways more than one, it brings an interesting twist by handing guns in the hands of these cute creatures, thus giving it the name ‘Pokemon with guns.’ It brings its own “ruthless poaching syndicate.” Apart from that it also features some major differences, such as crafting elements and combat abilities of Pals.
Palworld details
Palworld will begin its early access on January 19, 2024. On the day of launch, it will be exclusive to Microsoft’s Xbox. Thus it will only be available on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. The game’s official Steam page, mentions that the developer Pocket Pair has no plans to release the game on PlayStation 5, however, it “will consider it during development.”
At launch, Palworld will come at a price tag of $29.99. Besides, it arrives as a day-one release on Xbox Game Pass, thus users having the subscription can get the game for free.
This early access to Palworld is believed to last for at least a year. The developers say that they plan on using this time to make modifications based on reviews and responses received. Additionally, Pocketpair will also release a roadmap for the game soon after launch. This will detail some major features that players can expect in the coming months.
Is Pokemon With Guns a Multiplayer Game?
Palworld or Pokemon with Guns is a multiplayer game featuring a kind of experience that many Pokemon fans have longed for a long time. The multiplayer mode of the game allows up to four players to join the game together for co-op play. This includes exploration, PvP battles, and trading Pals. Thus players can invite three other friends to join them to play Pokemon with guns.
It can allow up to 32 players to play together on a dedicated server. These 32 players can play in the same world and create guilds together. These features will be available at launch as confirmed by the developers.
That being said, it must be noted that the developers have plans to increase this number even higher to allow more players to play together, however, this will be added at a later date via a later update. On day one of launch Palworld is confirmed to be available on Xbox Game Pass. This means it will be very available for groups of players who are looking to enjoy the game together on Xbox.
