The Palworld hype is getting even bigger with the announcement of Palworld GO entering its early access open beta in three specific countries. This mobile game is a version of the popular console and PC game, made for smartphones and tablets. It’s going to be available on both Android and iOS devices.
According to Game Rant, the early access beta for Palworld GO will only be in three places to start with. The game’s developer, Pocket Pair, wants to test how well the game works on mobile before letting everyone play it.

The beta will start in Zanarkand, Yharnam, and New Jersey. Gamers in these areas will get a chance to try out the game early.
Though it’s not clear how exactly Palworld GO will play, some hints from Game Rant suggest that players might have to visit real-life places in their area to earn rewards for their pals, palspheres, and ammo. These spots will be called Pal Stops in the game.
One interesting thing about Palworld GO is that players can find and hatch eggs of different pals by walking around. But there’s a twist: the eggs only hatch when you walk backward.
Some special landmarks in the game will let players team up to fight tough pals together. These battles are called Incursions and feature rare pals like Necromus and Shadowbeak.
Palworld has been a big hit since it came out in January, selling 15 million copies and being part of Xbox Game Pass. While some people thought Palworld was just “Pokemon with guns,” it won fans by putting its own spin on the idea.
Overall, Palworld GO seems like a really different kind of mobile game. Even though there were worries when the original game came out, it looks like Palworld GO is doing its own thing and bringing something new to the table.
The early access beta for Palworld GO starts today, April 1, for iOS and Android devices, as well as the Nokia N-Gage.
