Marking the first anniversary of Palworld’s early access release, developer Pocketpair has released a roadmap of what to expect in future updates through 2025. Most exciting are major new features including co-op crossplay, world transfers for Pals, and a World Tree ending scenario
It’s less of a roadmap, and more of a to-do list, to be honest, as there’s no timeline to go with the list of features and content that Pocketpair has outlines. We’ve no idea when to expect crossplay, for example. Still, it’s great to see the team targeting some rather key features for the game.
The future Palworld roadmap includes the following:
In addition to the game roadmap, Pocketpair has also marked the first anniversary by putting the game’s soundtrack on YouTube with 28 tracks included.
Palworld is available across PC, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and, since last September, across PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4. December saw a major new update for the game that added a whole new island region for players to explore.
Palworld has enjoyed a huge amount of success, its meme-worthy blend of Pokémon-like monsters, base building, crafting and guns proving to be an immediate hit last January. That success, however, has brought a lot of scrutiny. Back in September, Nintendo and The Pokémon Company announced a lawsuit against the indie developer, seemingly for infringing a recently acquired patent for capturing and summoning monsters in battle. Pocketpair promised to fight this lawsuit, and it feels like Nintendo’s case could be a little bit shaky and tenuous… though we don’t really know how Japanese courts will view the case.
