Palworlddevelopers Pocketpair have revealed a new major update, which introduces “the largest and harshest” island in the survival game’s history, together with new tower bosses and new pals. As for everything else… that’s a secret, but you can expect a “large amount of new content”, and we’ve got a few images to speculate over.

Going off theSteam announcement, Palworld’s next major update lands sometime in December. With it comes a new island “six times the size of Sakurajima”, which was the area added in thelast major update. It’ll include new species, but not just any new species - “vicious” species. This suggests that the pals will be nasty and horrible, as opposed to pals.

Let’s look at the three images (the only images we have) of the new update.

Elsewhere, a collaboration withTerrariais in the works for 2025. No other details on that, but I’d imagine some assorted monsters from the Terrariaverse will shift over into Palworld.

Earlier this month, Pocketpairrevealed three patents Nintendo and the Pokémon Company are taking them to court about. The Pokémon lads are also seeking an injunction against the game, potentially blocking sales. It’s not clear what the outcome will be, but Pocketpair aren’t backing down.
