Palworld’s expanding to mobile with a new MMORPG
Palworld is expanding beyond PC and consoles with a new mobile title, Palworld Online, an open-world MMORPG due to launch later this year. The move comes just weeks after Palworld's 1.0 launch and is being developed by Garena, extending the popular "creature-collecting with guns" franchise to iOS and Android audiences for the first time.
According to the announcement, reported by Polygon, Palworld Online will retain core elements of the original game, including crafting, creature collecting, and co-op, PvP and PvE multiplayer modes. It will introduce a new narrative setting with original story elements and exclusive side stories, alongside a touch-friendly interface with optional one-tap controls designed for base management on mobile screens. No release date has been confirmed yet, though it may arrive before Pocketpair's previously announced farming spin-off, Palfarm, which also remains without a launch date.
In short
- Palworld is getting a mobile MMORPG spin-off called Palworld Online
- Developed by Garena, launching later this year with no set date
- Retains crafting, creature collecting and multiplayer, plus new story content
Explained simply
Palworld is a video game from Japanese studio Pocketpair in which players explore an open world, collect creatures called Pals, craft items and build bases. It became known for combining creature collecting with survival and combat, including the use of guns.
The original game is available on PC and consoles, while Palworld Online is being made for iOS and Android by Garena. It is planned as a massively multiplayer online role-playing game, a type of game where many players share an online world. Its mobile release would bring the series to phone and tablet players, with multiplayer and base-building adapted for touchscreens.
