Summary
- Base-building is integral in Palworld, allowing players to create intricate bases for daily activities and rewarding upgrades.

- Palworld is set to receive exciting updates addressing game issues, introducing raid bosses, new Pals, explorable regions, and permanent modes.
One Palworld player has built the island of Marineford from the long-running One Piece anime. Palworld is a survival-crafting game with a strong gameplay loop, allowing players to capture different types of creatures, craft bases from resources, and explore an immersive world filled with enemies. It features various events, including time-limited dungeons and tower bosses, that keep players hooked on the game.
Palworld players have lately come up with mind-blowing creations, some of which are automated farming bases that make resource production much easier. Lots of these functional bases are built in specific locations surrounded by natural resources, such as wood and stone. However, the downside to many resource-rich locations is that they aren't usually defendable.
One dedicated Palworld player, who goes by Evanforest62 on Reddit, has taken the game's construction mechanics to new heights and built the island of Marineford from One Piece. The player created a Japanese-inspired castle in the middle of the island, which serves as a hub for their activities and looks similar to the Marine Headquarters where different marine admirals live with low-ranking officers. There are also miniature houses and incredibly tall tower-like structures around the island.
Base-Building is a Core Part of Palworld
Building is, quite possibly, the most important aspect of Palworld, as it allows players to plunk intricate bases on wide-open areas to complete their daily activities. In addition to breeding friendly Pals and crafting all types of items, players can store heavy stacks of food using a functional house. It's noteworthy that upgrading bases in Palworld grants some rewards, including more deployable Pals.
The good news for Palworld players is that the survival game has a lot of new content coming down the road. According to a roadmap revealed by Pocket Pair, the next several updates will address some frustrating issues with the game's building system and other aspects. On top of new technologies and features, they will introduce formidable raid bosses and Pals. Moreover, Palworld will offer players more endgame content, including explorable regions and permanent modes.
Since its launch on PC and Xbox platforms, Palworld has exploded in popularity, becoming one of the most played online games in the world. Although it has recently seen a decline in its player base, Pocket Pair's hit indie still does great, averaging over 200,000 players at any time. According to the information obtained from the developers, Palworld has far exceeded expectations and sold more than 25 million sales across the globe.
