Palwrold's expansion

Palworld gets 1st expansion with Feybreak on December 23

Pocket Pair unveiled its first expansion, Feybreak, for Palworld, the survival action-adventure game, coming on December 23.

Palworld was nicknamed “Pokémon with guns” as it looked so similar to Nintendo and The Pokémon Company’s longstanding franchise. That prompted Nintendo to sue Palworld maker Pocket Pair earlier this year for patent infringement. The game sold more than 25 million copies.

Pocket Pair CEO Takuro Mizobe announced that the next major update for the open-world survival crafting monster-collecting game, Palworld, will be released on December 23, 2024.

The new mysterious island is the largest and harshest in Palworld’s history. The island is about six times the size of Sakurajima, which was added in the last major update. A powerful faction leader and many vicious new species of Pals lurk here.

A large amount of new content will also be added. Announcements will be made on the Palworld Youtube channel and official social media teasing the new content in the lead-up to release.

In addition, Palworld is currently 25% off on Steam. Don’t miss this opportunity to purchase it.
