We have news of a surprising performance cap on a game that we really expected to do better.
Will Palworld come to PS4, PS5 or Nintendo Switch? Platforms explained
17.01.2024 - 15:17 / radiotimes.com / Nintendo / Will
Palworld certainly has an interesting premise, with reviews being quite positive about the game described as 'Pokémon with guns', and so we’ll take a look at whether Palworld will come to PS4, PS5 or Nintendo Switch.
Seeing how high up on the Steam Wishlist ranking Palworld is, it stands to reason that many on other platforms will be keen to get up to base building, Pal catching and exploring shenanigans.
Who could resist the idea of being perched upon the shoulder of a giant Pal wielding a minigun, after all?

But, though we’re pals, we’ll stop ourselves before we yabber your ear off. Read on!
Palworld is available to play on PC, Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S at launch.
Palworld will be available on Team Green’s consoles and PC via Xbox Game Pass, but you can also pick it up on Steam.
There are many millions of other players on different platforms, however, and it would be a shame if they were to miss out on all the fun.
Perhaps when the game comes out of early access, we’ll start to see it pop up on other platforms, but we have more on the situation just below. Read on!

Palworld could potentially come to PS5 in the future.
This was confirmed by developers Pocketpair on its official Discord server in an FAQ.
A post states that it doesn't «have plans for this at the moment, but will consider it during development».
Given that Palworld is a day-one exclusive for Xbox Game Pass, this may go some way towards explaining why it isn’t appearing on any Sony machine.
If it were, we can only assume that it would come to the PS4 as well, seeing as Palworld can be played on Xbox One.
Nothing has been said of the game coming to Nintendo Switch, though.
Palworld runs on Unreal Engine 5, which is compatible with the Nintendo Switch, but it may be a better fit for the all-but-confirmed Switch 2.
