Palworld Poll Winner Zoe Will Become a Recruitable Character
Palworld Poll Winner Zoe Will Become a Recruitable Character Pocketpair has published the results of the Palworld global popularity poll. Zoe won the overall poll, and the company will make her a recruitable ally character in a future update patch for Palworld . The company launched the poll worldwide in late January 2025 . It let people vote for any Pals and faction leader characters who have appeared in the game. There was also a secondary poll where participants had to narrow down their votes to three. Zoe won the initial overall ranking with 31,535 votes. Meanwhile, Chillet, Jetragon, and Anubis comprise the top three list of the secondary poll, which has since been named the Favorite Pal Ranking. Pocketpair will also mark the results by releasing commemorative skins for all three winning Pals. Zoe is not the only human character to make an impact in this Palworld poll. Saya and Lily rounded up the top three of the overall ranking, and they also made their way to the top ten list of the Favorite Pal ranking. But despite these achievements, it still remains to be seen whether Saya and Lily will also be made into recruitable allies in future updates or not. Palworld is readily available worldwide on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, Windows PC, and Mac. Pocketpair has also released an update patch that enables crossplay on all aforementioned platforms.

Palworld Crossplay Appears Alongside New Sale
Palworld Crossplay Appears Alongside New Sale Pocketpair promised Palworld crossplay would appear around the end of March 2025, and it made good on that. The update arrived on the evening of March 18, 2025. In addition, the company revealed details about an ongoing Palworld sale that covers every version. Alongside the patch, Pocketpair confirmed some details about the update. Crossplay is available on every platform. This also means if you catch Pals, you can share them by transferring them between different Worlds. An Xbox Series X hotfix was also released to address issues with character save data. There’s also a trailer to go over the Palworld crossplay update. It highlights someone’s base with multiplePals working and thriving. An enemy Astegon then appears. While the player seems overpowered, an group of allies suddenly appears to assist and fight back. The group then  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWjKPwcuIOg&ab_channel=Pocketpair As for the Palworld sale, the length of it varies depending on the platform. On Steam , the PC version is only on sale until March 20, 2025. This is in line with the Steam Spring Sale. The PS5 version is reduced for slightly longer, as that discount is in effect at the PlayStation Store until March 27, 2025. The Xbox Series X price drop will appear for the longest period of time, as the Microsoft Store says that lasts for 20 days. So someone should have until April 8, 2025 to take advantage of the deal. Palworld is available for the PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC in early access, the crossplay update is out now, and the game is currently on sale on every platform.

Palworld Crossplay Release Date Falls in March Set
Palworld Crossplay Release Date Falls in March Set Palworld is a work-in-progress, with the title being in early access on the PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC, and soon an update will add cross-play. Pocketpair confirmed that will arrive at the end of March 2025, though there is no exact date for the feature yet.  There are very few details about what the crossplay element of Palworld will entail. Essentially, it seems it will apply to both multiplayer and Pal world transfers. Currently, up to four people on the same platform can play together in a standard game, but those with a server could bring 32 players together. So if this works as intended at launch, we’ll likely be able to see up to four people from the PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC versions all joining up to adventure and work together. This should also mean guilds would be open to everyone, which would also open up Pal trading via Pal Boxes.  While details about that gameplay element are scarce, Pocketpair was very forthcoming about a new sale on the early access game. It is reduced temporarily on both Steam and the PlayStation Store . In each case, it is 25% off, bringing the price down to $22.49. That offer lasts until March 27, 2025.  This is the second major update for Palworld in March 2025. At the start of the month, the game appeared on Macs . Given the lawsuit against Pocketpair by Nintendo, it is unlikely we will ever see the game on a Switch console. Palworld is available for the PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC in early access, and the crossplay update will arrive at the end of March 2025.  The post Palworld Crossplay Release Date Falls in March Set appeared first on Siliconera .

Palworld Mac Version Is Now Available
Palworld Mac Version Is Now Available Pocketpair announced on March 4, 2025, that it has just released the Mac version of Palworld . People can now purchase the game from the Mac App Store at $29.99 / ¥3,400 , although they must have at least 22.8GB of free space to install it. The company has also shared a new artwork showing the Pals playing the game on a Mac to celebrate its new release on the platform. The Mac version had an additional set of hurdles it had to pass until Pocketpair successfully released it. The company originally planned to release the Mac version on November 26, 2024. However, it announced a delay a few days before that, as it wanted to further improve the port's quality before releasing it. After announcing the delay, Pocketpair originally set the new release date to February 27, 2025. The company ended up taking more time to publish the press release for the formal launch of the Mac version of Palworld . The game is available on a Mac that at least has an Apple M1 chip, with a minimum required macOS version of 14.0.0. As with earlier platform releases like Windows PCs, the Mac version supports subtitles in Japanese, English, French, Italian, German, Castilian Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, Korean, and Chinese (Traditional and Simplified). Palworld is also available on Windows PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5, in addition to Mac. The post Palworld Mac Version Is Now Available appeared first on Siliconera .
