New Monster-Catching Survival/Crafting Game Palworld Is Now Officially Out (In Early Access)

Palworld, the infamous “Pokemon with guns” game, officially launched into Early Access today.

It is available on Steam and Xbox (One and Series XS) — plus accessible through Game Pass. Palworld is a crafting/survival adventure that allows players to live peacefully with creatures known as Pals or engage in activities like fighting, farming, and even selling or consuming them. They can explore dungeons, build, catch, and breed creatures.

While the full launch date remains undisclosed, developer Pocket Pair, plans to release a roadmap after the Early Access launch — outlining plans for the year ahead, including the introduction of new Pals.
