Palworld shows in the trailer again the mix of Pokémon-like monsters and firearms and fans find the idea brilliant.
What kind of game is this? Palworld may look like an exaggerated version of Pokémon, but according to lead developer Takuro Mizobe, it is a survival shooter.
Nevertheless, you can tame, collect, and breed monsters similar to the Pokémon games. You can then use the tamed monsters for your survival fight.
However, since the different creatures are not harmless, you can even use firearms against the various monsters.
What does the trailer show? The trailer is a crazy compilation of many scenes from the game, where you can see the battle with the various Pals, but also with weapons like assault rifles and rocket launchers.
The basic principle of the shooter is well received
How are players reacting? The comments on YouTube are very positive. The term “Pokémon parody” is mentioned several times, with the general idea behind it being well received, as shown by the following quotes:
- Vectorthehop: “I feel like this game will just be a silly mess, but I will love it anyway. I am totally hyped for Palworld and wish the developers good luck!”
- Miraqen: “A realistic Pokémon parody with guns is one of the most brilliant ideas humanity has ever had.”
- Nicofaster 21: “I pray to all gods that the gameplay is as good as the trailers show. With every single trailer, it looks better and better!”
- Kalif_Saladin: “For the first time, I like the monster designs of a Pokémon clone.”
- Mark Guyton: “I like how you can tell which Pokémon each Pal is a parody of, and it’s hilarious. Hopefully the game will be good.”
When is the release? The Steam page lists 2023 as the planned release date for Palworld.
