The mega-hit, Palworld, is brewing a storm of success. However, has the company released any toys and figures yet?
Palworld is a huge hit with people around the world. Its weird combination ofcritter-catchingand realistic violence fromsurvival gameshas captured a lot of people’s attention.
Although, much like fans of Pokemon, the real question is, “Where’s the merch?” Well, we have the answer.
Are there Palworld merch & toys?
As of right now, no. The only hint at something coming soon from Palworld in terms of merchandise is that the company’s CEO posted on Twitter/X that they were “having fun” making their own Palworld trading cards.

Palworld’s developers, PocketPair, have only just recently launched the game. With no real expectations that the game would explode in popularity like it did, of course, there are no toys just yet.
However, merchandise could hit a snag if anylegal actionfrom Nintendo and The Pokemon Company is taken. With similar designs, The Pokemon Companyresponded to the gamethat it’d beinvestigating it fully.
It could be months, or even a good couple of years before we see anything official from the game. For example, Minecraft’s popularity didn’t mean that toys and merch were made immediately. It took years for Creepers to infiltrate store shelves.
There is an AliExpress store that’s selling bootleg merchandise at the moment, however. As expected, there’s no real idea of how good the quality is, and we’d recommend against purchasing them anyhow.
Palworld has been out for less than two weeks – at the time of writing – and there appears to be no signs of it slowing down. The game has already surpassed 8 million copies sold on Steam and is available on Game Pass as well.
