Will Palworld Be Coming to PS5?
Palworld has taken the gaming world by storm with over 5 million copies sold since its release. However, PS5 gamers are eager to know if the game will be available on their console.
The Current Status of Palworld on PS5
Currently, Palworld is available on Steam and through Xbox GamePass in early access. Unfortunately, there are no formal plans to port the game to PS5 just yet.
According to the game's FAQ on Steam, the developers at Pocket Pair have stated, We don't have plans for this at the moment, but will consider it during development. Despite this, recent speculation on social media has sparked hope that a PS5 version might be in the works.
PlayStation's Response to Palworld on PS5
In response to the game's massive success, the Head of PlayStation Indies, Shuhei Yoshida, was tagged in a post and asked if PlayStation could make a PS5 version of Palworld happen. Yoshida's response was a simple, Yes.
While this is not an official confirmation, it suggests that PlayStation is open to working with Pocket Pair to bring the game to the PS5. Yoshida also tagged another member of the PlayStation team, Jingwen (Gina) Zhu, who works in Partner Development.
What This Means for PS5 Gamers
While there is no concrete news on a PS5 version of Palworld just yet, the interest and incentive are certainly there. With many gamers asking for a PS5 version and PlayStation showing willingness to work with the developers, there is hope that a deal might be reached soon.
For now, PS5 gamers can only wait and hope that talks between the two companies go well. With Palworld's massive success, it would be a missed opportunity for PlayStation not to get involved.
