Summary

During the 2024 ID@Xbox Showcase, Pocket Pair pulled back the curtain on an upcomingPalworldupdate introducing at least four new Pals and a new island for players to explore. The newPalworldupdate is slated to launch in the summer of 2024, and Pocket Pair shared a short teaser video of the new Pals that players will encounter in the update.

The news ofPalworld’s next major update came weeks after the release of Bellanoir, the first raid boss Pal, in the version 0.2.0.6 update. Unlike other boss-type Pals, Bellanoir does not spawn in random locations and instead must be called in via a Summoning Altar that can be placed in a base. Once the Summoning Altar is created, players can use a Bellanoir Slab to call forth the Dark-type raid boss for a battle. Though it cannot be caught in a Pal Sphere, that has not stoppedPalworldplayers fromdeveloping strategies to defeat Bellanoirwith little effort, using a base full of powerful Dragon Pals such as Jetragon.

The trailer then showed a new ostrich-like Pal that someviewers likened to a Pokemoncalled Espartha fromPokemon Scarlet and Violet. The ostrich Pal let loose an attack before the camera panned to another new Pal that floated in midair. This Pal had a dog-shaped face, long black ears shaped like hair, and assumed a meditative pose. The final Pal shown off was a long-necked mushroom creature. The trailer ends with thePalworldplayer character and Cattiva standing in front of an Eastern-style shrine, which may indicate that the new island draws inspiration from Pocket Pair’s home country of Japan.
