Palworld Online is a new MMORPG coming to iOS and Android later this year
Garena has announced Palworld Online, an officially licensed MMORPG spin-off of the hit creature-collecting survival game Palworld, due to launch on iOS and Android later this year. The move capitalises on Palworld's renewed popularity and marks a significant expansion of the franchise, taking it into the mobile MMO space for the first time with a mobile-first design rather than a port of the existing PC or console versions.
The mobile title reimagines the original game as a multiplayer experience set in a "seamless open world", featuring a new narrative setting, cooperative progression, PvE encounters, PvP battles and roaming world bosses. It is being developed in partnership with Palworld creator Pocketpair, with Garena – known for mobile titles such as Free Fire and for publishing Call of Duty Mobile – handling development and global operations. Precise launch timing and further details remain unconfirmed, so it is unclear whether this year's release will be a full launch or an early beta.
In short
- Garena reveals Palworld Online, a mobile MMORPG spin-off, for 2026.
- Mobile-only game features open-world co-op, PvP and world bosses.
- Developed with Pocketpair; exact launch date still unannounced.
