Although the Palpagos Islands already have a ton of content, Pocketpair has plans to make Palworld even better with future patches. So, to give you an idea of what to expect, here’s a full breakdown of the Palworld roadmap.
Palworld Early Access Roadmap
Developers from Pocketpair announced the roadmap for Palworld. They added that the sales exceeded their expectations and that they are experiencing many problems due to excessive access congestion. Here are all the planned tasks in the Early Access Roadmap for Palworld.
Addressing Critical Issues
Developers say they identified numerous bugs and that their priority is to fix them as soon as possible. They cited as examples rollbacks in the world date and persistence of the loading screens when trying to load into worlds.
Improvements to Implement ASAP
They also said that one of their priority tasks is to implement key configuration improvements, as well as the improvements to base Pal AI and pathing.
Planned Future Updates
Developers announced as well all of the planned future updates for Palworld. They really have planned a lot of them and we’re sure that the game will be even more attractive once these updates are done. Here are all the planned updates for Palworld.
- PvP;
- Raid Bosses (End-Game Content);
- Pal Arena (PvP for Pals);
- Steam-Xbox Crossplay;
- Various Xbox Feature Improvements;
- Server Transfers and Migrations;
- Improvements to the Building System;
- New islands, Pals, Bosses, and Technologies.
Upcoming Palworld Content, Explained
Currently, Palworld doesn’t have an official release date for upcoming content, but the developers have at least provided information about its future. Here are some of the highlights you can look forward to:
- New Pals
- PvP/Arena
- Crossplay for Xbox and Steam
- More supported languages
- Server/Save Transfers
- Character re-edits
- Possible DLC launches
- Possible PS5 launch
- Mod support
- Building system upgrades
- Trading Pals with other players
- Raid Boss fights
For starters, new Pals are expected to expand your collection further. A Year 1 plan will be released shortly, to give us more insight into these unknown creatures so we can prepare ourselves for our next team set-up. Character re-edits are also in place in the near future, to change up a player’s appearance after the start-up.
PvP is another upcoming feature for Palworld’s roadmap as Pocketpair continues testing its latest mechanics. The team strives to find the right type of strategy for this mode, but for now, players can work together in multiplayer.
Besides this content, expansions may be released over time, based on a hint in Palworld’s FAQs page. There are plenty of ways a DLC could go, whether it be with a new boss fight or another region. However, the developers will only go through with these plans if the Palworld community asks for them. Thus, the fans need to show their support for it in order to make it happen.
The rest of the Palworld roadmap showcases more support for platforms. In particular, Xbox and Steam crossplay will release now that the game is in early access. A PS5 release may also be in the mix, but again Pocketpair is only considering it and not officially putting the word out.
If you were hoping to see more languages, the team plans to include more of them as the game develops. Though, it isn’t entirely clear which ones will be available as of right now. Other than that, players who participate in both solo and multiplayer can anticipate a server/save transfer system to keep all their files intact.
Another bunch of upcoming content was added to the game’s Steam page, including a platform to trade with other players. You’ll also be able to participate in Raid Boss showdowns, where Guild members must gather and work together to defeat an enemy.
While these are the main points Pocketpair has indicated, there could still be plenty more content in the future. This may include things like new locations, recipes, and many more.
