How to unlock mounts in Palworld




Getting yourself a Palworld mount is one of the quickest ways to move around the map at speed, exploring new regions, and finding undiscovered Pals to catch. There are multiple mounts to collect in the game, and as they grant you their combat skills while you're in the saddle, it's more than viable to ride your Pal into a fight...

The best Pals to catch early in Palworld




Picking a selection of the best Pals in Palworld is a trial-and-error process, especially early on when you're first building your base and have no clue as to how you can exploit each cute creature you find. Your first goal should be achieving self-sufficiency; creating a place where Pals work to produce materials, create enough food to eat, and ideally don't get disgruntled due to sanity loss...

Palworld climbs the Twitch charts as streamers discover it contains bird butt grenade launchers, human trafficking, and other bizarro acts of Pal cruelty




Palworld, aka that game everyone has spent the last two years referring to as "Pokémon with guns," is out on Friday, but streamers are already broadcasting it ahead of launch—and going off early Twitch numbers, it's a hit. Wednesday morning (Pacific time) Palworld had around 60,000 viewers on Twitch, and that figure has climbed steadily throughout the day.

January's second wave of new Xbox Game Pass titles revealed - includes 'Pokemon with guns'

Xbox has taken the cover off the next batch of titles coming to Game Pass as January draws to a close and we kick on into February (don’t worry the speed at which time moves scares me too).

Kicking things off today (January 16) - on Cloud, Console, and PC - is Those Who Remain, a psychological horror thriller released back in 2020 by developer Camel 101. As you progress through its story, you'll be exploring the unsettling setting of Dormont, which is “a town in a spiralling split from the fabric of reality, warped by darkness and the deeds of its Citizens”.

Both F1 23 and Turnip Boy Robs a Bank are set to arrive in the service on January 18, with both offering high-octane action, but in quite different ways. The former is only hitting Console and PC, with its main draw being the chance to race an F1 car and see if you can stop Max Vestappen from winning all the time.

[h3][How does multiplayer work in Palworld?][/h3]
You can play Palworld with up to 3 friends by simply starting a multiplayer game and inviting them (4-player co-op). Beyond this, you can create a dedicated server, which will allow for up to 32 players to play in the same world and create guilds together. We will provide the tools to create these servers yourself at launch.

[h3][Can I use my single-player character in multiplayer too?][/h3]
At the moment, partially yes. Your character is bound to your world and is not shared across servers or single-player.
However, if you are the host of a co-op game then you can switch between single-player or multiplayer freely, but your guests will not be able to do this.
We plan to provide a server/save transfer method later on during development.

Steam Workshop support won't be supported straight away but we plan to add it after launch. Palworld is made in Unreal Engine 5 and we look forward to seeing what sort of mods people come up with!

[h3][Is this game a scam? Or is it a money-making MMO or virtual currency game?][/h3]
It is not a scam and will definitely be released on January 19th. PalWorld is a typical Steam game, you buy it once and it is yours forever. While we may consider expansions after the full release, that is a conversation we will all have together, as a community, when the time comes!
