Palworld does not support crossplay between different platforms. This means you cannot play multiplayer with friends who are on a different platform than you, whether it’s PC (through Steam or Microsoft Store) or Xbox.
However, there is some good news! The developers have confirmed that they are working on implementing crossplay functionality in the future. Although there is no official release date yet, they have stated that they understand the demand for it and are working to make it a reality.
Here’s a breakdown of the current situation:
PC (Steam): Cannot play with Xbox players or PC players using the Microsoft Store version.
PC (Microsoft Store): Cannot play with Steam players or Xbox players.
Xbox: Cannot play with any other platform.
In the meantime, you can:
Stay informed: Follow the developers’ updates on their website or social media to be notified when crossplay is available.
Play with friends on the same platform: Enjoy the game with friends who share your platform.
Request the feature: Let the developers know how important crossplay is to you by submitting feedback or joining their community forums.
I hope this clarifies the current state of Palworld crossplay and provides some helpful information!
