Pocketpair’s Palworld continues to impress, having sold over two million units within 24 hours of its launch into Early Access. Steam charts show that the game reached a peak of 855,706 concurrent players, trailing only to Counter-Strike 2, which had 1,003,394 players. This achievement is even more remarkable given that Palworld is also available on Xbox and PC Game Pass.
With its growing popularity, the game has experienced server issues, especially on PC Game Pass, where it runs a different version (0.1.0.0) compared to Steam’s version (0.1.2.0). The Palworld team revealed that they held an emergency meeting with the Epic Games team to address an issue related to the Epic Games backend. As of now, the connectivity errors and issues encountered when hosting co-op games on Xbox and PC have been resolved.
We’ve been enjoying our time in Palworld as a group of four and are looking forward to exploring more of the game over the weekend. We aim to publish our first impressions of the game on Monday.
