With the Palworld five million downloads announcement, Pocketpair shared a new piece of art with insight. That plateau was within three days of the early access game’s launch.

To offer more context, the game passed a million in sales after being available to purchase on Steam for eight hours.

As for the Palworld concurrent player announcement, Pocketpair offered a screenshot of SteamDB. It is now in third place for all-time peaks for concurrent players, just behind PUBG and Counter-Strike 2. While both of those are free, Palworld is a game people need to buy to play.  

It is now beating titles like Cyberpunk 2077, Elden Ring, and Baldur’s Gate 3.

Since that last announcement, the number of concurrent players increased. The all-time peak in that screenshot was 1,501,100, and as of 9:30am ET it was at 1,582,482. Valve itself also noted it is the top selling game at the moment, beating Counter-Strike 2 and Baldur’s Gate 3.

Palworld is available in early access on the Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC.
