Sony Music Entertainment Japan, Aniplex, and Palworld developer Pocketpair have announced that they have established Palworld Entertainment.

Palworld Entertainment is a joint venture that will be responsible for developing the IP further and for expanding its commercial business potential, including the global licensing and merchandising activities associated with Palworld, outside of the game.

What this means is that we might be getting either sequels or spinoffs in the form of other media in the future, such as animation, comics or others.

The joint venture efforts will officially begin with the development of exclusive merchandise based on the game, which will debut and sell at the Pocketpair booth during Bilibili World 2024 (beginning on Friday, 12 July 2024 in Shanghai, China) and be made available for pre-order at Aniplex and its subsidiaries, Aniplex of America and Aniplex Shanghai, e-commerce sites with more detailed information at a later date.

Palworld is available now for Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and PC via Steam and Microsoft Store, as well as Xbox Game Pass. It seamlessly integrates elements of battle, monster-capturing, training, and base building. Players are able to wield a range of weapons, from classic bows and spears to modern assault rifles and rocket launchers. The gameplay involves locating and capturing Pals, who in addition to assisting players in the construction and expansion of their base operations, can become powerful allies in combat.
