Palworld receives a massive player count spike in the wake of its recent update, after a few months of declining player numbers.
After a few months of declining numbers, Palworld has seen an enormous player count spike over the last few days. The reason for Palworld’s resurgence seems to be related to its recent free update and its price reduction in the Steam Summer Sale.
Released into Early Access back in January, Palworld became an instant phenomenon. Palworld sold 7 million copies in just five days after release, with its unique “Pokemon with guns” gameplay resonating with the gaming community. These sales numbers were obviously unsustainable in the long run, but it remained an extremely popular title online. Developer Pocketpair has continued to release new content for the game in the months since its launch, but until now, the player count for Palworld has slowly declined until recently.
