Palworld has taken the world by storm. Dubbed “Pokemon with guns”, Palworld has seemingly come out of nowhere but is making waves in the Gaming community, with over 7 million copies sold in the first 5 days of release. This game has outsold the likes of Spider-Man 2 and The Last of Us 2 compared to their first week on sale. But what is Palworld about?
What is Palworld?
Palworld is a multiplayer, open-world survival crafting game where players can befriend and collect cute creatures called Pals (hence the comparison to Pokemon). The game combines features from popular open-world survival games, such as farming and crafting. You can battle your Pals against each other and even set up factories and farms for your Pals to work in. Palworld has a vast open world for players to explore, craft bases and set up their Pal workforce. This has breathed some fresh life into the genre, hence why it sits at the top of Steam as currently the most-played paid game. One Redditor said the game is like “Ark: Survival Evolved without the tedious taming” which has put many players off playing ARK.

With 1.5 million concurrent players and the developer (Pocket Pair) claiming that the game is “only 60% complete with more to come”, Palworld shows no signs of slowing down. But what specs do you need to play the game?
