Palworld PS5, PS4 Tease Has Our Trigger Finger Itching

Hunting season

by Khayl Adam 5d ago

Developer Pocketpair first teased the possibility of bringing its mega-popular, kid-friendly shooter Palword to PlayStation platforms back in March, and it seems like there has been some movement on that front.

On Twitter, community manager Bucky pondered what colour hearts would best suit their post, which was already replete with black, green, and white, presumably correlating with the platforms Palworld is currently playable on. With black (Steam) and green (Xbox) hearts represented, Bucky added a blue heart, presumably for PlayStation, noting that it looks good.

Racking up a ludicrous 15 million sales in the first six weeks after launch on PC alone, we can see Palworld finding a measure of success on PlayStation. There's still no timeframe on this one, but we'll be sure to let you know as soon as we learn more.

Are you hyped to potentially see Palworld finally making its way to PlayStation platforms? Are you excited to see what all the fuss is about, or has the cutesy shooter already had its time in the sun? Lock and load in the comments section below.

I've always wanted animal cruelty and labor on PlayStation!

One of the most overrated games this year, honestly.

I can't believe this game is as big as it is.

You guys ever played this game? It’s kinda completely bizarre. I had it on game pass but so much of it didn’t immediately click until I realized “oh wait yeah I never played Ark”.

@HotGoomba Play any game on PSN with voice chat and there you go.

I honestly don't know what this is. Is it Pokémon with guns or something? That's what it looks like to me.

@Mustoe Basically, yes. But it's a survival, crafting game.

I haven't personally played it, but I think it looks crap from everything I've seen.

Still, good to have it on PS5 I suppose. It'll sell well, I imagine.

I enjoy crafting and survival games, (even though many are janky - like Conan Exiles which I've poured literally hundreds of hours into), but looking at it I can't say Palworld is something I'd try. I really don't like the aesthetic. I imagine it'll have an audience though.

It's a game that became popular as it was basically a meme, not for its quality in any way. The meme is dead and the PS release is far too late to the party.

From what I've seen it looks awful and I believe the game is pretty much dead now as well, makes sense they want it on Playstation now.

All the people saying, "The game has lost all its players now, the game is dead."

Uhhh obviously you haven't played the game then yourself. Looking at SteamDB is not the whole story.

That is like saying, Spider-Man 2 has 95% less players now than it did during its launch month.
Its a single player game... Looking at player count on a single player game, if you are looking at those numbers as if they matter at all, then you don't know what numbers even matter.

PalWorld isn't a single player only game, but another very important detail about PalWorld that needs to be taken into account...
PalWorld launched on Steam and Xbox in EARLY ACCESS. The game only had so much content. Which did not take long to complete honestly.
They are adding a PvP match making arena in this next update coming in a week... The player base will spike back up again.

This reminds me of Star Field LoL... So many people talking about the game being a failure and dead as soon as it launched,... a completely single player only game haha. But when the rumors of it coming to PS5... suddenly people were intrigued on playing it.
I love my PS5, but I can still see people capping.

If you want to complain about the game being overrated just play banana.

I'll take as many alternatives to Nintendo franchises as I can get so bring it over! I would also love for Sumo Digital to make another Sonic racing, a sequel to Sonic Transformed if is not too much trouble 🤞 (I would settle for remasters)

It was fun playing it on Xbox when it came out, but months later other games made me forget about this game. If it launches through PS+ then I might dive back into it.

YES, PLEASE

Loved it on Steam when it came out. Giving it time to bake enough to work out bugs and such for a PS5 release warms my stone-cold heart.
