Pocketpair’s Palworld is getting its long-awaited crossplay feature in its latest update today. Fans of the open-world survival game have been awaiting the debut of crossplay for a while, with many Xbox, PlayStation, and PC players looking forward to diving into the multiplayer world with friends. Even with the ongoing talk about the lawsuit from The Pokemon Company and Pocketpair, the game still racks up player numbers with thousands of Pal Tamers on a daily basis. Within the Palworld patch notes, there are some new features added to the game including a bigger storage system, transferring Pals, and a cosmetic armor system.

Available across consoles and PC now, the Palworld Crossplay update features some specification and balance adjustments to the title, which adds more EXP during certain battles. One noticeable adjustment is the addition of sitting on chairs as well as the expanded Pal Storage system, which can be accessed by Guild members and be made privately. To top it off, a Drafting Table has been added to combine low-rarity blueprints to create higher-rarity ones.
