Palworld Dating Sim Confirmed: No April Fools' Prank, Says Developer
Developer Pocketpair has exciting news for fans of their massively popular monster-catching universe: they've announced Palworld! More Than Just Pals, a new dating sim that's set to add a romantic twist to the Palworld experience. Announced on March 31, 2025, this isn't an April Fools' Day prank, despite the timing raising some eyebrows among the gaming community.
Pocketpair is keen to dispel any doubts: Palworld! More Than Just Pals is a legitimate project, inspired by an April Fools' Day jest from 2024. The game will be available on PC via Steam, though a release date hasn't been specified yet.
In Palworld! More Than Just Pals, players will step into the shoes of a transfer student at the prestigious Palagos Private Academy. Here, they'll have the chance to befriend and potentially fall in love with a diverse cast of student Pals, including the "cute" and "mysterious" Katress, and the "timid" Chillet. The game's premise allows for a range of interactions, from forming friendships to romantic relationships, or even taking a darker turn with the Pals.
Pocketpair's official statement on the game teases, “You, the protagonist, enroll as a transfer student in the prestigious Palagos Private Academy. You will meet unique friends (pals) and enjoy school life through friendship and romance. It's up to you whether you stay friends with the pals, develop romantic relationships with them, or even dismember and eat them.”
To reassure fans that this isn't a hoax, Bucky from the Palworld team tweeted, "This doesn't concern April Fools :)" on March 31, 2025.
As Palworld itself marks its one-year anniversary, ongoing updates continue to keep the community engaged. Recent additions include crossplay support, Blueprint upgrades, and a photo mode, all of which should help ease the wait for Palworld! More Than Just Pals. Meanwhile, hopes are high for a potential Nintendo Switch 2 version of Palworld, but even if that doesn't materialize, fans can look forward to the possibility of the dating sim making its way to the console in the future.
