Pocketpair Teases Terraria Sword & More For Upcoming Palworld: Feybreak Update

Palworld: Feybreak is releasing tomorrow, and the team at Pocketpair has been giving us an advent calendar of teases over the past several days. Released in a series of posts on their discord server, we now know quite a few details of the upcoming update.

First, the one you clicked on: Pocketpair will be adding Terraria‘s Meowmere in Palworld: Feybreak. The associated youtube video only specifies that the sword will come in the “December update”, but the discord post is more specific. The sword is in Feybreak, and it’ll reach your game tomorrow.

The addition of Meowmere is part of an ongoing collaboration that Palworld has with Terraria, one that’s had a series of teases of its own. While details are sparce on this collaboration, we know that something much bigger than a single sword is coming in 2025.

As for Pocketpair’s other teases, we know that Feybreak will feature a “hardcore mode”, with two settings you can use to make your game more challenging. If you’ve ever heard of a “Nuzlocke“, these should be pretty familiar to you.

Surprise: it’s permadeath. One setting applies permadeath to your Pals, the other to the player. Both can be enabled at the same time, for an even greater challenge.

Nuzlockes are Pokémon challenge runs meant to increase difficulty, making some games much more dfficult. These are the hardest of them all.

We’ve also been given a look at a new mechanic for the game. You can form adventuring parties of Pals, and send them out to explore dungeons and bring back resources. It’s not yet known if this mechanic can endanger your Pals, and risk hardcore mode’s permadeath mechanics – but given the general vibe of the game, it seems likely.

In another teaser, Pocketpair gave us a look at a new boss fight coming to the game. Meet Bjorn, a big guy who seems to be a pretty big deal.

And in the one remaining teaser, it looks like we’re getting new facilities for Pals to operate in your base. This, alongside new lands to explore and new Pals to “befriend”, are your standard fare for big updates like this.

Palworld: Feybreak Launches Tomorrow

The next step in Palworld’s growth is almost at our doorstep. Despite ongoing pressure from Nintendo, Palworld is putting on a strong face and moving forward with development at a mighty pace.

This isn’t even the first major update the game’s had – we’ve already seen what Pocketpair is capable of, with the Sakurajima update.

Sakurajima will give us a good baseline to compare Feybreak to, perhaps offering insight into how impactful Nintendo’s efforts have been to put pressure on Palworld’s developers. Time will tell, but we won’t need to wait very long.
