World's biggest mod site says no to Palworld Pokémon mods after taking one look at Nintendo's record of 'mercilessly submitting legal challenges'

With tens of thousands of mods for games like Skyrim and Fallout, Nexus Mods must be the biggest mod site on Earth, but even it's not keen to pick a fight over Palworld with Nintendo's army of lawyers. After seemingly removing an Ash Ketchum mod for the game from its archives, Nexus community lead Mathew Elliot told PCGamesN that the site was "not comfortable hosting this content," meaning anything that might at all touch the livewire that is Pokémon's copyright...

Palworld's future update roadmap includes a Pal PvP arena, raid bosses, and crossplay

Good news, people who like Palworld (there seem to be quite a lot of you). Pocketpair has revealed what its plans for the game when it comes to future updates look like, with the likes of PvP, raid bosses, and crossplay all being on the list.

While a lot of folks have been caught up in the discourse surrounding Palworld’s similarities to Pokemon or have been dealing with some serious bugs when they’ve fired it up, plenty have been having fun with it. If you’re not into creating your own fresh entertainment via trickshots, you’ll probably be glad to know that Pocketpair has plenty of new features planned for the game down the line.

The developer has shared its roadmap for the game’s future via a post on Twitter, which it kicked off by saying: “Sales have far exceeded the development team's expectations, and we are currently experiencing many problems due to excessive access congestion, among other challenges.”

As if the very popular, but also very controversial Palworld wasn’t becoming inescapable enough for those of us who have to use the internet on a daily basis, it’s quickly becoming a very potent source of both Call of Duty and Fortnite-esque trickshots and the kinds of launches Skyrim’s giants are infamous for.

Given the fact the game’s still in the early access phase, it hasn’t been too surprising to see that it’s been home to a lot of the kinds of bugs and glitches you might expect to encounter at that point in a title’s lifespan. While some of these teething troubles and fun quirks, such as one that’s seen the game get stuck at a black screen on launch, are of the frustrating variety, a number can either be useful or fun.

One example of the latter is the fact that hopping on top of a Pal Sphere as it captures a Pal can send your character flying upwards, a bit like you’ve jumped on a bouncy castle. While this neat little trick has become pretty common knowledge over the past week or so, some players have now mastered it enough to pull off some pretty impressive trickshots.

Palworld has taken off—with a huge player count that's set Steam records, its own controversies surrounding unfortunate game mechanics, and AI worries. Now it has an updated roadmap, as posted to the game's official Discord server this morning...
