New Pokémon Game “Palworld” Sells Over 4 Million Copies in Just 3 Days!
Palworld, a game described as “Pokémon with firearms,” has shattered records over the weekend, selling over 4 million copies since its Early Access release on Friday on the Steam and Xbox Series X/S platforms.
Throughout the weekend, this monster-collecting survival game has climbed the ranks to become the most popular game on the Steam platform. In the last 24 hours alone, it has surpassed 1.2 million concurrent players, surpassing the concurrent player numbers of games such as PUBG, Counter-Strike 2, and Dota 2. This also exceeds the concurrent player numbers of games like Cyberpunk 2077, Baldur’s Gate 3, and Elden Ring.
Even in the face of server issues that have prevented multiplayer gameplay, Palworld is now approaching the record set by Dota 2, with only a difference of 4,000 players.
Palworld has sold over 4 million copies in just 3 days! Sales momentum has significantly increased since yesterday, with the latest data showing 86,000 copies sold per hour.

Therefore, it is not surprising that Palworld’s multiplayer servers are currently experiencing some instability, and as of writing this article, they are still unavailable. Yesterday, developer Pocketpair announced on social media that when the number of concurrent players exceeded 700,000, they had to have an “emergency meeting” with Epic Games to “implement an Epic Online Services update”. Today, the team announced that the servers are currently facing problems due to an extremely high load worldwide.
In case you missed it, Pocketpair recently advised players not to use an in-game item called the “Memory Reset Drug” as it may cause an irreversible error.
Currently, players who use the “Memory Reset Drug” may experience a permanent decrease in their monster-catching abilities, and the development team, while conducting an investigation, advises players to “refrain from using it until the investigation/fix is completed”.
As this monster-collecting game continues to gain strength, breaking its own records of concurrent players and steadily increasing the number of copies sold, some less enthusiastic Pokémon fans have taken to social media to share their thoughts on the similarities between Palworld and Pokémon.
