After multiple years in early access, the legally distinct Pokemon-like game Palworld is getting its 1.0 version very soon.
Palworld 1.0 will launch on July 10, developer Pocketpair announced during Summer Game Fest today.
“We would like to express our deepest gratitude to our passionate community who has stayed with us through this journey. We are fully committed to delivering a deeper, more evolved, and definitive Palworld experience worthy of a full launch,” the developer said.
Coinciding with the 1.0 announcement, Pocketpair announced that Palworld is currently 25% off on Steam, bringing it down to $22.50.
Palworld originally launched on PC and Xbox in January 2024, becoming a gigantic success and breaking records. It came to PS5 in September 2024.
Palworld is not available on Nintendo Switch. Nintendo sued Pocketpair in 2024 on patent infringement accusations. The game was updated in 2025 with “compromises” due to the legal matter.
Exciting news about Palworld’s official launch! It’s great to see a project that has been in development for so long finally coming to fruition. Looking forward to seeing how it evolves in the final release!
Absolutely, it’s exciting to see it finally come to fruition! The unique blend of action and creature collection in Palworld really sets it apart from other games in the genre. It’s interesting to think about how the community’s feedback during early access may have shaped the final product as well.
I totally agree! The combination of action and creature collection really sets Palworld apart. I’m also curious to see how the multiplayer aspect will enhance the gameplay experience, especially in co-op missions.
