Palworld has been an undeniable hit since it launched in early access. With how much success the game has already had on PC and Xbox platforms, there’s been strong outcry from fans about getting the survival game onto other systems. There’s a lot of speculation surrounding if and when Palworld will come to PS5, so let’s break down everything we know.

Is Palworld confirmed for PS5?

Developer Pocketpair has not announced a PS5 port of Palworld at this time. However, Sony Interactive Entertainment’s Shuhei Yoshida expressed interest in bringing the game to PlayStation during a fan interaction on Twitter/X. When asked about getting Palworld onto PS5 as soon as possible, Yoshida replied “yes” and tagged a member of PlayStation’s partner development team.

While this doesn’t serve as a confirmation of a Palworld PS5 port, it means that at the very least, PlayStation is interested in having a conversation with Pocketpair about making it happen. This of course is no surprise given the millions of copies that Palworld has been able to sell during its early access period.

If Palworld does eventually come to PlayStation 5, it likely won’t be for some time. The developer recently shared a roadmap, which had no mention of PS5 (or other platforms). We've also got our Palworld Strategy Guide full of articles to help you! Go check it out.
