Palworld Roadmap: All Confirmed Updates Early Access Plans So Far

Palworld can improve Pokémon Legends: Arceus ' repetitive story with a compelling plot that consists of more than the same fight over and over again with different enemies. Few details concerning its main story have been revealed, but the latest trailer released by Pocketpair may have shown the antagonist, an unknown group that holds a character and their Pal at gunpoint, and bears a resemblance to Pokémon 's Team Rocket. Palworld 's darker themes mean that a similar criminal organization could be worse than any that Pokémon has had so far, especially since the Evil Teams have been growing less villainous in recent Generations; though there's potential for Pokémon Scarlet & Violet _ 's Team to actually be evil . This mysterious organization can provide a gripping narrative that's much better than _Pokémon Legends: Arceus ', and the fact that players can be villains themselves means that they may even be able to craft their own story in a way that the Pokémon games don't al


Palworld can improve on Pokémon Legends: Arceus ' capturing focus by not requiring players to capture as many Pals as they do Pokémon. Though it does appear to have a similar capturing mechanic in the sense that players will manually throw spheres in order to catch Pals, the multitude of other revealed features indicates that capturing will just be one more aspect of the game rather than the most important one. Legends: Arceus was almost a better Pokémon game that revolutionized the series, but its focus on capturing every Pokémon held its story and other gameplay aspects back. Although the full details of Palworld 's mechanics are still unknown, it looks much more well-rounded than Pokémon Legends: Arceus was, so hopefully, each one is given its chance to sh


Pokémon Legends: Arceus featured a new capturing system where players manually throw Poké Balls at wild Pokémon in the overworld without needing to enter battle with them. It was a stark contrast from most of the mainline series and added a fun aspect to a mechanic that became highly important due to the game's focus on filling out the Pokédex as opposed to challenging a Pokémon League or combating an Evil Team. However, Pokémon Legends: Arceus also put too much emphasis on catching Pokémon. It may be fun to seek out and capture Pokémon Legends: Arceus ' hard-to-find species , but in order to complete the Pokédex, players will need to capture literal hundreds of Pokémon of all shapes and sizes, and some even need to be caught in certain ways. It quickly becomes excessive, and it may be for the best that _Pokémon Scarlet & Violet _ appears to abandon the new mechan


Surfing the ocean and sea will become so much easier when using Azurobe as the mount. While Surfent is the superior choice when it comes to its mobility in the water, encountering Surfent is rarer compared to Azurobe. On top of that, its saddle is locked at the higher levels, unlike Azurobe. That said, while Azurobe is quick in the water, it mightily struggles when used as a mount on l


In a Steam FAQ, Palworld devs also teased the possibility of trading. Trading is an interesting addition as there is a way to already, though it is not official. If multiple players can access the same Palbox, it is possible to trade Pals by placing them into one of the worker slots. However, that trade has limitations and could be fixed in a future patch if it was a technical mistake. This trading change also looks to allow players to trade between worl

PvP would arguably be the biggest addition to the game outside of mods. It will be interesting to see how it comes about due to the myriad of ways it could play. There is a chance that the player will have some impact, whether by attacking the enemy Pal or the player. The other option would be the more traditional route of Pal versus Pal, which then asks whether it will be turn-based or like the battles currently


Raids are another interesting angle, as the game already includes world bosses. The only information presented around them is that it will require guild members to work together . This speculates that these raids may either be longer than world bosses or much tougher, to the point that a single player would struggle with them. Either option would be a boon to Palworld Towers , but perhaps a combination of both would be the best outc


In Pokémon Legends: Arceus , the protagonist is sent back in time by the titular Legendary Pokémon Arceus, the primary deity of the Pokémon universe. They set off on a journey to capture and study every Pokémon in the region and create the first Pokédex, in a break from most of the mainline games that typically all use the same basic plot. In addition, Pokémon Legends: Arceus threw out the stat system used by most of the mainline series and revamped the battling and catching mechanics as well as introducing entirely new ones. It was a big step for Pokémon , but one that doesn't quite go far enough, and hopefully Palworld will be more of what Pokémon Legends: Arceus could have been if it had taken further innovative st
