Palworld has just revealed its first “real” update and its new generation of friends who have nothing to envy Pokémon. Lots of new features are expected, including a unique zone.
The Pokémon with Guns game called Palworld already promises a lot, including the upcoming addition of a new PvP mode. Additionally, the app continues to stay in the spotlight with regular additions of content. However, it is also criticized for its similarities to Nintendo’s Creatures. In addition, just a few days ago a buddy named Foxicle had attracted attention. He looked like a cross between Frosty and Ninetales (Alola version). We also take the liberty of mentioning that in January Nintendo created a commission of inquiry to investigate these famous copies. However, Pocket Pair won’t wait for the results of these investigations to reveal new creatures in the actual first update.
New Pokémon in Palworld?
In a new trailer revealed during the recent Xbox ID, PocketPair officially announced the arrival of an update as well as four new Pals. Unfortunately we don’t know their names; we must therefore content ourselves with their descriptions. There we find a black belted frog, a crane (or an ostrich, depending on your interpretation), a samurai rabbit and a dinosaur with a mushroom hat. This time no obvious resemblance to Pokémon could be found. However, since netizens had become teasing and very attentive, some “inspirations” stood out. We can cite Favianos, Amphinobi or even Chapignon. Overall, this Palworld trailer doesn’t offer much information.
However, we were able to catch a glimpse of a new island. It is clear that it will be inspired by Japan since we see cherry blossoms, toriis, etc. there. The rabbit is particularly reminiscent of this region with its ninja or samurai look. We also see a swampy area full of oversized mushrooms. As for the weapons, the developers have revealed a flamethrower and a futuristic rifle. That’s all for now, but it’s certain that this update will be talked about again. In any case, it should be ready for use by summer 2024.
The Arena update is coming
We’ve already told you this in advance, but another update is eagerly awaited: the Arena update. This will arrive sometime in 2024 and promises the introduction of PvP combat. From the few images we were able to see, we discovered an arena system that will hopefully also have leaderboards and rewards. We don’t know anymore, so let’s be patient. Anyway, plagiarism or not, Palworld seems to have a bright future ahead of it!
