The developer of Palworld says it is in talks to release the survival game on other platforms and is open to partnership and acquisition offers.
In an interview withBloomberg, Pocketpair CEO Takuro Mizobe talks about Palworld’s overwhelming success and its plans for the future. In the article, Mizobe reveals that the developer is “in talks” to bring Palworld to more platforms after launching via Steam and Xbox Game Pass at the start of the year but didn’t reveal exactly what this includes - meaning it’s unclear if we’ll be getting Palworld on Nintendo Switch orPS5any time soon.
Talking about the studio, Mizobe revealed thathe wants Pocketpair to remain independentand to continue working in a small team: “We are and will remain a small studio. I want to make multiple small games. Big-budget triple-A games are not for us.” The CEO is, however, open to considering offers for partnership or acquisition but said that the studio has not engaged in acquisition talks withMicrosoft- despite launching Palworld on its platform.
Although it doesn’t feel like it, Palworld has technically only been out in the world for a couple of months now. Its developer is clearly eager to keep the momentum going, though, as it’s already released thePalworld roadmap, which features things like PvP, server transfers, better Pal AI, additional islands, and more.
In fact, it’s already been revealed thatPalworld’s first raid is coming “soon” and it’ll star a big bad goth. The game’s community manager also recently said that"very cool things"were on the way so expect a lot more Palworld content soon.

After studying Film Studies and Creative Writing at university, I was lucky enough to land a job as an intern at Player Two PR where I helped to release a number of indie titles. I then got even luckier when I became a Trainee News Writer at GamesRadar+ before being promoted to a fully-fledged News Writer after a year and a half of training. My expertise lies in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, cozy indies, and The Last of Us, but especially in the Kingdom Hearts series. I’m also known to write about the odd Korean drama for the Entertainment team every now and then.
