Palworld has reached an astonishing 25m players within its first month.
The numbers, revealed by developer Pocketpair, also confirm 15m players jumped into the action-adventure, monster-taming, survival game on Steam. The other 10m have dived in on Xbox, though Pocketpair didn’t specify how many of these were players who bought a copy of the game versus how many were playing via Xbox Game Pass.
15m copies of Palworld sold on Steam will have made Pocketpair about $315m, which is around £250m, after taking off Valve’s 30 percent cut. That money will surely go a long way to helping Pocketpair with its $500k a month spending on servers, as well as hiring developers to no longer be “overwhelmingly short of people”.
