Pokemon fans looking to try something new after playing The Teal Mask DLC for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet may be interested in checking out Pocketpair's upcoming title Palworld. Described as "Pokemon with guns" by fans, Palworld seems to be blending a variety of genres including open-world survival, monster collecting, and third-person shooter gameplay. Previously, the game only had a January 2024 release window, but developer Pocketpair recently confirmed that Palworld will enter its early access period on January 19, 2024, so players will be able to check out this strange title for themselves very soon.
