The legal tussle between Nintendo, The Pokémon Company, and Pocketpair, the minds behind Palworld, seems to be gaining steam. Yet, this hasn’t put the brakes on new developments for Palworld. In a surprising move, Pocketpair has unveiled a partnership with Terraria set for 2025.
The announcement popped up on the game’s social media, along with some eye-catching promotional artwork. At the moment, the details of how this collaboration will unfold are under wraps as the focus is elsewhere, but we’re definitely eager to see what’s in store.
Alongside the buzz around this crossover—which may or may not result in updates for both games—Palworld is set to introduce a brand new island in December. This isn’t just any addition; it’s being hyped as the "largest, harshest, and most mysterious" region yet. To give you a sense of scale, this new landmass is about six times bigger than Sakurajima. For those in the thick of the game, that’s quite an expansion. The team has even shared some screenshots you can check out below:

Despite the dip in hype surrounding Palworld, it’s still riding high with an ‘Overwhelmingly Positive’ rating on Steam, boasting thousands of players every day. And that’s not counting those logging in on Xbox and the newcomers on PS5.
If Terraria does get a Palworld-themed makeover in 2025, it would be another significant update to Re-Logic’s 2D crafting adventure, a game they’ve hinted at moving away from despite its enduring popularity since its 2011 debut.
In other news related to Palworld, fans were recently miffed about the game being overlooked at The Game Awards. The community manager had to step in, advising everyone to take it easy. Additionally, a new Tencent-backed knockoff of Horizon called Light of Motiram has reminded some folks of Palworld’s own tricky ties to Pokémon, stirring conversations about what truly inspires a game.
