Pocketpair is doing everything possible to ensure that its creation,Palworld, continues to be the popular monster-capturing and survival game hybrid that it is. Considering the developer’s plans, that will likely be the case, which is made especially clear by how much fans are looking forward to the upcoming feature it plans to implement.The crossplay update forPalworldis coming soon, which means players can enjoy battling with others outside whatever platform they’re playing on. Although such an addition is welcome, one can say that it won’t provide the full experience unless it comes together with something else that Pocketpair has planned for quite some time.
Palworld’s crossplay update is set to arrive by the end of March, and it’s no surprise that a lot can’t wait for its arrival, given how it will expand the pool of people available for every platform’s multiplayer. However, even if it were successfully released, it would still feel lacking without the game’s mobile version. Pocketpair has been planning to allow people to playPalworldon their iOS and Android devices for quite some time, but there have yet to be any significant updates regarding when it will happen. Hopefully, the developer will release it sooner rather than later, as the crossplay feature would definitely benefit from its addition.
Why Palworld’s Crossplay Update Feels Incomplete Without the Game’s Mobile Version
The absence ofthe mobile version ofPalworldmay not have detrimental effects on the crossplay feature, but it would certainly have made a difference if it were available. Given that it’s likely not going to be released as soon as the update rolls in, players will have to wait until the day it can provide the interesting benefits that the new online multiplayer experience could have had now with its inclusion:
There’s no denying that the game’s mobile version would have improved the crossplay feature, which means Pocketpair will have to put in the effort to release it as soon as possible. For now, players can only wait until that time comes, and speculate on just how different it will be once people who can choose to play on their phones can join the party.
Palworld’s mobile port is being developed by PUBG Studios.
How the Lack of the Mobile Version Can Affect Palworld’s Crossplay Multiplayer Feature in the Longrun
While people can focus onthe expectations ofPalworld’s crossplay updateand how it will meet them on its release, it is also important they consider the future of the upcoming feature. Pocketpair has made it clear that the game’s mobile version will have differences from the PC and console ports, which means the multiplayer aspect will likely be affected. Should that be the case, those already enjoying the crossplay feature may have to adjust to whatever modifications will take place, which could be easy or hard depending on Pocketpair’s execution. If possible, the developer hopefully won’t take too long to releasePalworldmobile, so players won’t have too much to worry about when it comes to adaptation difficulties or problems.
Palworld’s crossplay could herald the coming of something big, and hopefully, it’s the game’s mobile version. Though it’s unlikely to come out anytime soon, Pocketpair should prioritize putting effort into releasing it quicker, given what it and the new multiplayer feature can do for the monster-capturing and survival hybrid.
