Singapore, 3 August 2026 – Singapore-headquartered Garena Online Private Limited (https://www.garena.sg/) today announced Palworld Online, a new multiplayer survival adventure currently in development based on the globally popular Palworld IP, under official license from Japanese game company Pocketpair, Inc. (https://www.pocketpair.jp/).
Developed and published by Garena, Palworld Online reimagines the depth, freedom, and scale of the original PC survival creature-collecting title for mobile. As an officially licensed title, it introduces a new narrative setting with original story elements, while expanding into a Massively Multiplayer Online (MMO) ecosystem. Featuring a seamless, interconnected open world, Palworld Online invites players to journey alongside mysterious creatures called "Pals" and progress as a team — anytime, anywhere.
“Palworld is a widely recognized IP, and we see an opportunity to bring the essence of the PC title to mobile in a way that encourages players to connect and venture together,” said Terry Zhao, President at Garena. “Working closely with Pocketpair, we are focused on preserving the depth, immersion, and freedom that define Palworld, while thoughtfully optimising the experience for mobile play.”
Palworld Online’s key features include:
- A Seamless Open World for Discovery and Creature Collecting: Players can traverse a vast, interconnected ecosystem with their Pals, uncovering hidden treasures, clues to the lore, and challenges. From capturing and raising Pals to unlocking new regions across the map, each encounter is designed to feel meaningful and deepen the bond between players and their companions. In addition to the original story and unique lore, Palworld Online will also expand the narrative with new side stories created exclusively for this version, inviting players deeper into Palworld Online.
- Online Play and Cooperative Progression: Centred on playing together, Palworld Online lets players meet others in the world, form groups, build shared settlements, and engage in cooperative and competitive activities — from tackling challenging PvE encounters with friends to facing thrilling PvP matches. Those seeking a more relaxed pace can visit others’ bases, team up to fight rampaging bosses in the open world, or hunt down rare Pals together.
- Immersive Survival and Crafting in a Shared World: Together with their friends, players can establish a shared home base that grows into a collaborative hub for crafting, defence, and daily life. By expanding structures and deploying Pals to automate production and safeguard the settlement, players can focus on creating a living space that supports social interaction.
- Designed for Mobile Accessibility: Optimised specifically for mobile play, Palworld Online features a streamlined, touch-friendly interface with optional one-tap controls, making base planning, construction, relocation, and Pal deployment easier to manage on handheld devices, without sacrificing depth or flexibility across a wide range of phone specifications.
“Garena has extensive experience in global publishing, localisation, and live operations for mobile games,” said Takuro Mizobe, CEO of Pocketpair. “We are pleased to work with Garena on the licensed development of Palworld Online and look forward to seeing a new Palworld experience brought to players worldwide.”
Palworld Online is scheduled to be available in 2026. More details, including the timeline for its launch, will be unveiled at a later date. Players can follow official channels for future updates.
