As any fan of Palworld will tell you, the game is ripe with possibilities for merch and goodies to decorate our homes. From plushes to figurines, clothing and even terrifying nightmare fuel, if you look hard enough you’ll be able to find everything Palworld related, but none of it is official merch.
Posting on Twitter this morning, Pocketpair has assured that there is indeed some official merchandise on the way, if fans can wait a just little longer to get their hands on it.
Accompanying this plea was a purposefully faded image of a Cattiva plush, giving fans something to get excited about. However, the comments were mostly focused on fans asking for their favorite Pal in plush form – although a staggering lack of those are after a Depresso plush, I must say.
Unofficial Palworld merch is hit or miss
It’s safe to say there is a lot of unofficial Palworld merchandise out there. A quick search for “Palworld merch” on Google will prove that the internet is positively overflowing with plushes and clothing that is almost good, but just not quite right. There’s a scale of not quite right, starting with wonky-eyed plushes and going all the way to the sleep paralysis demon costumes I wrote about a while back.
The demand for Palworld merch is obviously there. There’s a whole string of websites dedicated to selling unofficial merch from the game, and they’re all sold out of plushes, so that’s got to say something for how much fans want these items in their homes.
The problem here is that every player has a different favorite Pal. Of course there are some Pals with a larger fanbase, like Chillet, but there is a Pal for every person. The only way to keep every plush-loving player happy would be to bring out a line of plushes for the entire Paldeck, which may prove problematic, especially considering the ever growing number of Pals.
I’m just hoping for an official Depresso plush who can keep me company while I hide away from the world, avoiding human contact.
