Pocketpair has released the version 0.5.0 update for open-world survival crafting monster-collecting game Palworld, which adds cross-play, a new storage system, a Photo Mode, and more, the developer announced.
CCG writes - "Overall, while it certainly has similarities to Pokémon, it's more a survival-style game that happens to have collectible monster-style features and both are pretty fun. Technically, aside from a few minor gripes with controls and performing certain actions, it's pretty solid and quite stable. Morally, it's got some mild if cartoonish violence with little else of note. Overall, I enjoy Palworld, and if you want a survival sim mixed with collectible monsters to make your pals, this is a great game with those themes."
Palworld's character customization is one of the title's main areas of criticism, and there are a few techniques Pocketpair can apply to fix it up.
When comparing Palworld's Neutral element to Pokemon's Normal types, the problems of the former make it feel lacking when compared.
