Where to find every Journal Entry in Palworld

Strange things have happened on Palpagos

The history of Palpagos, or at least some clues to it, are hidden across the Islands in the form of Journal Entries. These are multiple different types of Journal Entries, from Castaway Journals to entries by Tower Bosses. Here’s our guide to finding all of them.

For the purposes of ease and to keep this short, I’m using the Palworld coordinates system to help you locate these Journal Entries. If you’re confused, don’t worry. 

Let Palworld’s coordinates be your guide

Just open your map and look in the bottom left-hand corner of the window. Here, you’ll find some numbers. These are your coordinates. Wherever you put your pointer on the map, the coordinates change to reflect it. 

When looking for these Journal Entries, your best bet is to place a marker down at the correct coordinates and head towards it. Don’t worry, I’ll tell you which Fast Travel location is closest to each Entry. Once you reach the rough coordinates, look out for the glowing blue tablet device on its podium.

By the way, Castaway’s Journal Entry 5 doesn’t exist

I mean, I’m sure it does… Somewhere. But I’ve spent hours searching for it, as have others, and no one seems to have found it yet. The completionist side of me is crying over this missing entry, but I’m sure it’s lurking around out there or just an oversight. We’ll update this list as soon as any further information comes to light. 

How to check Journal Entries in Palworld

To see which ones you’ve already found, or catch up with the story of Palworld, simply press escape and select “Journals”. Usefully, they’re already separated into sections, and we’re going to follow those sections with this guide.
