Following the reveal of Pokémon Pokopia, which combines the Pokémon series with lifestyle content, Palworld, currently in the spotlight for its legal dispute with Nintendo, has announced its own genre expansion with Palworld Palfarm.

The trailer begins with a Pal speaking to the protagonist, evoking a vibe reminiscent of Animal Crossing. The player is shown interacting with Pals in a peaceful village, communicating with them, working together, purchasing items, and enjoying various leisure activities.

Activities immediately visible in the footage include simple actions like taking a walk as well as farming, trading, fishing, mining, logging, and even marriage.

Player reactions to the announcement were quick to highlight the timing. Comments ranged from “The reveal couldn’t have come at a more perfect time, right after Pokémon Pokopia,” to witty remarks such as “Finally, Animal Crossing on PC,” along with more general excitement like “Competition is always welcome.”

At present, Palworld Palfarm is listed on Steam, where players can add it to their wishlists. The release date has not yet been announced.
