Palworld keeps $29.99 price at 1.0 launch despite earlier warnings

Just days before one of the decades biggest breakout hits officially leaves Early Access, developer Pocketpair has surprised fans with one last announcement. While many players expected the game's price to increase alongside its long-awaited 1.0 launch, that won't be happening after all. Since early 2024, the game's Steam Early Access page has included a note warning that the game's price "may increase at or closer to the official release." With Version 1.0 arriving on July 10, many assumed the survival hit would soon cost more than its current $29.99 asking price. Instead, Pocketpair has confirmed it is keeping the game at its existing price as a thank-you to the community that helped turn it into one of gaming's biggest success stories .
