Round this time final 12 months, on the day of the April idiot, Palworld made a humorous little jest in the direction of the gaming public—what if we do an especially unique joke and say we’re making a visible novel? He he, ho ho, would not that be amusing.
I can solely think about the assembly that adopted the place, staring blankly into area, somebody determined to talk up and say ‘okay, what if we really make one?’ Clearly, no-one was courageous sufficient to battle towards this act of divine injustice, as a result of Palworld developer Pocketpair is totally making a visible novel.
🚨Steam Web page Reside🚨A Palworld college romance VN?! 💕Pal♡world! ~Extra Than Simply Friends~https://t.co/tXgVcWyTbnThe new trailer introduces new characters!💗Wishlist NOW on Steam 📌 pic.twitter.com/m5nw6nFJZAMarch 31, 2025
Pointedly introduced March 31, not April 1, the sport has a Steam web page, and all the things: “You, the protagonist, enroll as a switch scholar within the prestigious Palpagos Personal Academy. You’ll meet distinctive pals (buddies) and luxuriate in college life by way of friendship and romance. It is as much as you whether or not you keep pals with the buddies, develop romantic relationships with them, and even dismember and eat them.”
Even—maintain up, even what? Can we simply—maintain on.
Palworld itself is not any stranger to darkish humour. You may prepare dinner Friends (or simply overwork them)—which is truthfully no matter. They is likely to be a little bit extra smarter than the common animal we chow down on in the true world, and likewise able to summoning nice conflagrations, however most Friends are nonetheless… you recognize, animals.
The forged of the upcoming visible novel “Pal♡world! ~Extra Than Simply Friends~”, nonetheless, are anthropomorphised. Simply straight-up individuals, with like, garments, and the capability for human speech. Why are you able to dismember and eat them? I’ve a number of extra questions, however that is probably the most urgent one.
Anyway, the brand new trailer (proven under) offers us a glimpse at a number of new romantic/gastronomical choices.
Watch On
These embody Clumsy Quivern, whose “refreshing smile and harmless character make him well-liked with each women and men”, Faculty Nurse Saya, who “toys with the protagonist together with her grownup intercourse enchantment”, Bubbly Tarantriss, who knits you cute scarves, and Yandere Splatterina, who “at all times carries a knife and exudes a harmful scent” and “tends to imprison individuals”. Cool.
The trailer itself offers a glimpse on the form of scenes this accursed creation will present, like getting caught observing Faculty Nurse Saya’s chest, or petting Chillet whereas they make suggestive noises. Somebody, someplace, will presumably be thrilled by each of those developments. Pal♡world! ~Extra Than Simply Friends~ would not have a launch date, so we’ll be protected from it for some time longer. Now in case you’ll excuse me, I have to go dunk my head in some chilly water.
