Pal World was released on January 19, 2024, and cumulative sales on Steam reached 4 million copies in about 3 days after its release. Palworld's sales pace is 86,000 units per hour.




Steam's official statistical data has revealed that the number of simultaneous users (in-game players) of Pal World on Steam was 1,291,967 at its peak.



According to Steam Charts , an unofficial database that collects and analyzes Steam statistical data, Steam's historical ranking of concurrently connected players is as follows.

Official Steam statistics and Steam Charts show that the number of concurrently connected players is slightly less than 1.3 million, but the Palworld official X account claims that the number of concurrently connected players exceeds 1.3 million. Additionally, as a result of this, an unusual load has been placed on the server, and an unknown failure is occurring in Epic Online Service, making multiplayer unavailable.
