One Palworld player has managed to build their base on a mountain. Palworld is an action-oriented game where players must overcome enemy Pals, monstrous creatures with their own skills, to progress in the story. It emphasizes survival and exploration, featuring over 130 Pals that can be used to navigate through the world. As confirmed by the developers, Palworld will receive content updates in the months ahead and introduce more PvP activities, bosses, and sub-regions.

Upon its initial launch, Palworld has garnered so much interest, exceeding over two million concurrent players on Steam. It has quickly made it into the top played games on the platform, overtaking massively popular games like Counter-Strike 2 and Baldur's Gate 3. Besides, Palworld's global sales continue to grow, as the developers recently announced that their hit indie has sold over 19 million copies.

Palworld Player Builds Their Base in an Unusual Location

One crafty Palworld player known on Reddit as Pinesse has built their base on a rocky mountain. They put a lot of stairs on the mountain ledges, which are in the shape of shelves, to move between levels. It looks like the player colonized this resourceful place and used their smaller Pals to mine coal and metal. Those who want to establish a base in this location can find it on the north side of Katress Boss.

With the monster-catching game still in early access, Palworld is still missing some quality-of-life features that would make base-building more fun. As stated by players on Reddit, one such feature is the ability to upgrade the foundation without having to wreck it. Besides, many would like to see Pocket Pair bring more furniture and decorative items they can use to personalize their house. There is no definitive release date for Palworld's next content update as yet.

Palworld Characters Ride Pals

Since the game's initial release, Palworld players have poured out their creativity by making all types of structures from the ground up. For instance, one spent 18 hours building a replica of Burj Khalifa, while another put up a spiral base to accommodate their Pals. Despite having some limitations, Palworld's construction mechanics have led to the creation of these awe-inspiring bases.

Palworld recently issued a new update for Steam and Xbox, making several major fixes to improve the player experience. According to the patch notes, there is a fix for save corruption, which left save files in a broken state in the previous version of the game. Moreover, the update implemented countermeasures against exploits that can give players an unfair advantage. Considering Palworld is still in early access, more bug fixes and quality-of-life changes will likely be released in the weeks ahead.
