Palworld lead promises "you will always be able to play" Pocketpair's survival game: "Why would you assume it had an 'end of service?'"

Palworld's head of publishing and communications, John 'Bucky' Buckley, has promised players that Palworld will always be playable, as, at its core, it's not a live service game. The creature-collecting survival-crafting game has seen a resurgence of players since it left early access on July 10, 2026. Palworld is by no means a single-player game, and the majority of players use at least some of its online functions. Palworld 1.0 has already moved over 1.8 million copies for Pocketpair, analyst estimates, with 65% of players on Steam
