Can you evolve Pals in Palworld?

If you’re wondering whether Palworld’s homage to Pokémon continues by letting you evolve your Pals, then you’ve come to the right place, pal.

Comparisons to Pokémon are inescapable when it comes to Palworld. There are many fascinating creatures to catch and battle, inhabiting a lush, vibrant world stocked to the gills with wonder and excitement—the obvious differences of lethal armaments and military-grade artillery aside.

There’s been a ton of discourse regarding the nature of Pals and whether they have bigger and badder forms. After all, who’d want a pistol-wielding Eevee lookalike if it could evolve into a superior version?

Do Pals evolve in Palworld?

Pals do not evolve in Palworld, and whatever form they have is the form they will stay as, forever. However, the game’s breeding mechanic unveils an alternative to evolving with a new meta for creating the most powerful Pals. Fusing two Pals together will result in inherited traits that can result in even stronger iterations.

Additionally, you can level your Pals up. Your buddies won’t be consigned to a lifetime of abject stagnation: Pals can level up and will do so when you earn enough XP for completing various activities, like catching Pals, defeating Pals, and crafting and building.

Once we’re out of the Palworld Early Access period, things could change, so stay tuned for more information.
