Bases in Palworld are useful, but can also be beautiful or imposing structures that reflect the energy and creativity of the players behind them.
Terrariais an exploration-driven game, similar toMinecraftbut taking place across a vast 2D, side-scrolling world. The core gameplay is based on digging, chopping, and even flying through the world and collecting precious resources for crafting. In addition to being able to build a base and collect NPCs,Terrariaalso has plenty of enemies and several boss monsters to defeat.Palworlddoes all these things as well, but it alsoadds the ability to capture the creatures encountered along the wayand put them to use asPokémon-like fighters with guns, or as builders and workers for the base.

There’s no information yet about what the collaboration will actually look like, butit would be awesome to see someTerrariaitems inPalworldor vice versa. It would also be fun to be able to capture some of the boss monsters fromTerrariaas Pals inPalworld,likeThe Eye of Cthulhu, which would make a great mount.
It might also be fun to find and capture some existing Pals in the pixellated style ofTerraria,then use them likePokémon.Palworld’ssimilarity toPokémonhas recently landed the game in somelegal trouble from Nintendoand thePokémon Company, who filed a lawsuit against the popular new game.
This doesn’t seem to have slowedPalworlddown at all, as it continues to charge full speed ahead with more events, updates, and collaborations. I’m sure theTerrariacollab is just the first of many fun events that Pocketpair has in store for its fans.
