Palworld stormed onto the scene with record-breaking numbers. The open-world survival game took a community of fans by pleasant surprise as many had never even heard of the title before its early-access debut on January 19th, 2024. Even since its explosive arrival, Palworld has broke its consecutive player record again and again, gaining millions more players and turning many more heads. But a new and massive player base isn't the only reason the game is turning heads. Despite its soaring popularity, the game has faced numerous allegations due to its striking similarities to legendary titles like Pokemon and modern Legend of Zelda games. Now, the newest game from developer Pocket Pal is back in the limelight for a pal that never saw the light of day—until now.
