Palworld's giant community has shared messages of support for the Japanese indie develo꧃pers.

Speaking to TheGamer at this year's 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Tokyo Game Show, Pocketpair community manager Buc🍸ky shared the team's rationale behind this decision, saying that Pocketpair still plans to support the game "for a long time."

Palworld Was Never A Free-To-Play Title

I asked Bucky why ജPocketpair never co♔nsidered the free-to-play, live-service route for Palworld, given that the game is seemingly so well suited for it.

He told me: "We never envisioned Palworld as a live-service game because we wanted to provide a rich gameplay experience where players can enjoy the game at their own pace. We plan to support the game for a long time, offering new content and updates based on the feedback from our player community. Our goal is to con൲tinue evolving and 𒁏growing the game.”

Our goal is to contiꦕ🍒nue evolving and growing the game.

So, despite apparently not going down the traditional route, although it kind of༒ sounds like it is, Palworld will continue to receive long-term support from its developers.

One recent show of this long-term support was the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:revea🍨l and release of the game's PS5 version at Tokyo𝐆 Game Show, something which Bucky said had been in the works for a while.

“The PlayStation 5 version was part of our plans from the beginning. However, we prioritized delivering the best experience for players on the initial platforms first, with the strategy of gradually expanding to other platforms. For the PS5 version, we aimed to release it at the optimal time to ensure it provided a satisfying exജperi🎉ence for players.”

Palworld has been described as Pokemon with guns and well, it's hard to argue with that. The game is very similar in nature to the Pokemon formula, tasking you with catching and working with monsters called Pals. There are key differences, though. Palworld is rooted in multiplayer, oh, and, unlike Pokemon, its Pals have guns.
