Is Palworld on Xbox Game Pass? How To Play For Free

Join us as we explain if Palworld is on Xbox Game Pass at launch (Jan. 19, 2024), which platforms it is available on, and if you can play it for free on PC.

Palworld on Xbox Game Pass

We are excited to inform you that Palworld will be a Day 1 Xbox Game Pass release, both for consoles and PCs.

That's it! If you are an Xbox Game Pass subscriber, you can jump into this exciting and sometimes cute open-world survival/crafting game on Jan. 19, 2024, without having to open your wallet.

Palworld Platforms: Free on PC & Consoles?

Palworld is on PC (via Steam) and on the Microsoft Store. You can play Palworld for free via Xbox Game Pass (PC, Xbox Series X/S, and Xbox One). If you don't have an Xbox Game Pass subscription at all, you can always purchase the game's Early Access version on Steam for $29.99 or via the Xbox Store. 

The only other barrier to entry for PC gamers specifically is the game's system requirements.
