Pocketpair has announced plans to launch a major Palworld expansion this month.

Arriving in the form of the Sakurajima update on June 27, it will introduce a new island for players to explore, plus new Pals and subspecies.

It will also add dedicated servers on Xbox, new buildings, a new level cap, a new raid, an oil rig stronghold, and a PvP arena mode.

“There will be an opportunity to try out the new Sakurajima update before its release on June 27,” according to the description accompanying the new trailer at the top of this page.

Released in January via Steam Early Access and Xbox Game Preview, Palworld attracted 25 million players in its first month, according to Pocketpair.

In March, Pocketpair CEO Takuro Mizobe said the company was in talks to bring Palworld to additional platforms.

He also said Pocketpair would be open to considering offers for partnership or acquisition, but that the company hasn’t engaged in buyout talks with Microsoft.

According to the Xbox maker, Palworld enjoyed the biggest third-party Game Pass launch to date.
