The open-world survival game is also a part of the Xbox Game Preview program, which is the console's version of early access games on PC, meaning it's a work in progress and not a full release. But gamers can pay to play early and help shape the game as developer Pocketpair updates it. And now, just a couple weeks after release, two of the most-requested features\u2014crossplay and dedicated servers\u2014have been confirmed to be in the works for Xbox. \"Developers are listening to player feedback, and have started applying their learnings to the game already\u2013and they know crossplay is one of the largest requests from fans, and are working quickly to address it,\" Xbox said in a blog post. For now, Xbox Game Pass players can only play Palworld with those also on Xbox, and cannot play with those who have the game for PC on Steam. But soon, that may change. And so, too, will the issue of the game not having dedicated servers on console. \"On Xbox\u2019s part, we\u2019re working with Pocketpair to help provide support for Xbox versions of the game,\" Xbox said. \"We\u2019re providing support to enable dedicated servers, offering engineering resources to help with GPU and memory optimization, speeding up the process to make\u00a0Palworld\u00a0updates available for players, and working with the team to optimize the title for our platform.\" Palworld has taken over the gaming world, reaching over 19 million players on PC and Xbox less than two weeks since its launch. \u201cThe response from fans has been tremendous and it\u2019s incredible to see the millions of players around the world enjoying\u00a0Palworld,\" said Pocketpair CEO Takuro Mizobe. \"This is just the beginning for us and\u00a0Palworld, and the feedback we\u2019re gathering while in Game Preview will allow us to continue to improve the experience for Pal Tamers across all platforms.\u201d\u00a0","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Palworld-Petallia.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1116260"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/918"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1116260"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1116260\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1116299,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1116260\/revisions\/1116299"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1107565"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1116260"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1116260"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1116260"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1116260"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1116260"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1116260"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1116260"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}

The open-world survival game is also a part of the Xbox Game Preview program, which is the console's version of early access games on PC, meaning it's a work in progress and not a full release. But gamers can pay to play early and help shape the game as developer Pocketpair updates it. And now, just a couple weeks after release, two of the most-requested features\u2014crossplay and dedicated servers\u2014have been confirmed to be in the works for Xbox. \"Developers are listening to player feedback, and have started applying their learnings to the game already\u2013and they know crossplay is one of the largest requests from fans, and are working quickly to address it,\" Xbox said in a blog post. For now, Xbox Game Pass players can only play Palworld with those also on Xbox, and cannot play with those who have the game for PC on Steam. But soon, that may change. And so, too, will the issue of the game not having dedicated servers on console. \"On Xbox\u2019s part, we\u2019re working with Pocketpair to help provide support for Xbox versions of the game,\" Xbox said. \"We\u2019re providing support to enable dedicated servers, offering engineering resources to help with GPU and memory optimization, speeding up the process to make\u00a0Palworld\u00a0updates available for players, and working with the team to optimize the title for our platform.\" Palworld has taken over the gaming world, reaching over 19 million players on PC and Xbox less than two weeks since its launch. \u201cThe response from fans has been tremendous and it\u2019s incredible to see the millions of players around the world enjoying\u00a0Palworld,\" said Pocketpair CEO Takuro Mizobe. \"This is just the beginning for us and\u00a0Palworld, and the feedback we\u2019re gathering while in Game Preview will allow us to continue to improve the experience for Pal Tamers across all platforms.\u201d\u00a0","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Palworld-Petallia.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1116260"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/918"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1116260"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1116260\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1116299,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1116260\/revisions\/1116299"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1107565"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1116260"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1116260"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1116260"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1116260"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1116260"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1116260"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1116260"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
