Palworld’s Feybreak expansion introduces a Terraria collab

Palworld players have a lot to look forward to Monday as the Pokémon-like receives its next major update, subtitled Feybreak, and the first fruits of an ongoing crossover with 2D sandbox game Terraria.

Feybreak adds another massive island — reportedly six times larger than the area introduced in the previous Sakuraijima update — to the already expansive Palworld playground. The new island includes more Pals to collect, foes to challenge in battle, resources to gather, and realistic weapons like assault rifles, sub-machine guns, and grenades to manufacture.

The full Feybreak patch notes can be found here, but a couple standouts include the ability to sit in chairs for the first time and modules for Spheres (Palworld’s Poké Ball analogues) that add capture-enhancing curves to their throw trajectories, kind of like Pokémon Go. This seems odd considering the legal trouble Palworld developer Pocketpair has already had with Nintendo, but hey, I’m no lawyer. Also, Pokémon games rarely let you sit in chairs, so there’s that.

Palworld players will also get a chance to wield the Meowmere, a special sword from Terraria that fires projectiles and meows with every swing, as demonstrated in the video below. Pocketpair describes the weapon as “only a small taste” of the collaboration between Palworld and Terraria, so fans of both games should look forward to further content throughout 2025.

Despite having a rough 2024 in terms of litigation, Palworld was nominated for Best Early Access Game at the Golden Joystick Awards, which was ultimately won by horror-comedy extraction game Lethal Company, and is currently in the running for Better With Friends category in the Steam Awards. Pocketpair seems determined to continue expanding its weird, little Pokémon clone, and it should be interesting to see how it develops in the new year.
