The legal showdown between Nintendo & The Pokemon Company and Palworld’s developer, Pocketpair, is definitely turning heads, yet it hasn’t slowed down the creation of fresh content for Palworld. Recently, the company dropped a bombshell—a collaboration with Terraria set for 2025.
The exciting news broke on the game’s social media channels, accompanied by an eye-catching piece of promotional art. While the specifics of how these two worlds will collide remain under wraps, the very idea has us eagerly anticipating more details.
Amid this buzz, even more excitement comes with the announcement of a brand-new island heading to Palworld in December. This island promises a slew of new creatures and challenges, described by the developers as “the largest, harshest, and most mysterious” they’ve crafted so far. For those familiar with the game, this fresh piece of land is vast—about six times bigger than Sakurajima! Eager players can sneak a peek at this new terrain through the screenshots shared in the official post.
Interestingly, despite Palworld not quite riding the same wave of popularity as it did earlier this year, it continues to enjoy an ‘Overwhelmingly Positive’ rating on Steam. It still draws in thousands of daily players across various platforms, including Xbox and the recently added PS5.
If Terraria ends up featuring Palworld-themed elements in 2025, it will represent another significant update for Re-Logic’s iconic 2D crafting game. This comes as a surprise after the developers had indicated they were moving on from their beloved 2011 release.
There’s more in Palworld’s world—fans were recently ruffled when The Game Awards seemed to overlook the game. The community manager quickly stepped in, urging fans to take it easy. Also, today, interestingly, a Tencent-backed game named Light of Motiram, which some see as a cheeky nod to Horizon, has stirred the pot again. It recalls Palworld’s own controversial connections to Pokémon as a rather ‘creative influence,’ to put it mildly.
