Pocketpair has announced (https://youtu.be/tOatviGVCTs?feature=shared) the date for the Early Access release of Palworld ? the legally distinct Pok?mon game with guns. It will launch on January 19. Accompanying the announcement is a new trailer.


Palworld is an open-world crafting survival game that features monsters extremely reminiscent of Nintendo?s Pok?mon series. The twist is that rather than tame them through friendship, you blast them with an array of firepower. You?ll also need to do some base building to keep your Pals a place to eat and rest.

The trailer shows off some other? uh, trainers, who wield some legally distinct Pokeballs. Palworld allows for up to 32 players. PVP battles are planned but won?t be in the initial Early Access launch.


The derivative nature of Palworld?s concept sort of undermines the weirdness of it. However, I have to admit that recent looks into it have looked pretty fun. With something like this, I?d almost expect the devs to quickly spit something out to capitalize on the novelty of the concept, but that doesn?t look like what?s going on here. The developer seems to be taking their time in developing it.


On the other hand, Pocketpair doesn?t exactly have the best track record (https://www.destructoid.com/craftopia-is-the-most-bewildering-video-game-mash-up-ive-ever-seen/), but that?s not always the whole story. I?m at least curious enough to try it.
