Developer Pocketpair has unveiled an exciting new addition to its universe with the announcement of Palworld! More Than Just Pals, a dating sim that promises to bring romance into the mix of its widely acclaimed monster-catching game. Announced on March 31, 2025, this isn't an April Fools' Day prank—despite the timing raising some eyebrows among fans who are wary of the usual flood of fake game announcements that typically inundate the internet as April 1 approaches.

Pocketpair is keen to dispel any doubts: Palworld! More Than Just Pals is a genuine project. Originally sparked by an April Fools' Day jest in 2024, the concept has evolved into a full-fledged game slated for release on PC via Steam, though an exact launch date remains under wraps.

This dating sim sets itself apart with a unique twist on the Palworld universe. Players will step into the shoes of a transfer student at the prestigious Palagos Private Academy, where they can forge friendships and romances with a diverse cast of student Pals. Characters like the "cute" and "mysterious" Katress and the "timid" Chillet are highlighted on the game's official Steam page, drawing directly from the beloved creatures of Palworld. The narrative allows players to decide the nature of their relationships, whether to nurture friendships, pursue romance, or take a darker path by dismembering and consuming their Pals.

As Palworld celebrates its one-year anniversary, Pocketpair continues to enhance the game with regular updates, keeping the community engaged while they await Palworld! More Than Just Pals. Recent updates have introduced crossplay support, Blueprint upgrades, and a photo mode, among other features. Meanwhile, fans hoping for a Nintendo Switch 2 version of Palworld hold onto hope, and there's optimism that the dating sim might also find its way to the console in the future.
