Does Palworld Support Crossplay?
Palworld luckily does have crossplay but only if you and the other player’s game versions match. As of the Palworld early access launch, Xbox gamepass players and Xbox PC gamepass players can play together but they can’t play with Steam players. This is presumably because the Steam version is v0.1.2.0 while the Xbox version of the game is v0.1.0.0. This means the versions just aren’t compatible.
How to Join Friends in Palworld
Joining friends in Palworld is pretty simple. One player starts a world, this will be the host. The host goes to the pause menu, look under options, and select the eye icon to show the invite code. Other players wanting to join the world will enter the invite code from the main menu. You can not transfer characters from other worlds, so if you haven’t joined this server before, you’ll need to make a new character.
Future Crossplay
Will Steam players ever be able to play with Xbox gamepass players? Most likely, yes. The community is assuming that the inability for crossplay with Steam players is due to the version mismatch. This means once the Xbox version is up to date, Steam players and Xbox player should be able to join each other’s games.
