A new Palworld update has arrived to the controversial game, and this time, it includes a massive collaboration with Terraria.

The crossover between Palworld and Terraria is one of the most anticipated this year. It was originally announced in November 2024; however, no further details were shared by Pocketpair.

Months later, a post on Palworld’s official X account confirmed that the release date would arrive within a few days and gave players a glimpse of what they could expect from Tides of Terraria with a new trailer.

Now that the update is live, here are all the details for this major update.
