Palworld, the game that has drawn comparisons to Pokémon and stirred up some controversy since its release in 2024, may have a chance at making its way to the Switch 2. This speculation arises from comments made by Pocketpair’s communications director, John Buckley, who attributed the game’s absence on Nintendo’s current hardware to technical limitations.
Buckley mentioned in an interview with IGN: “If we could make the game work on the Switch, we would, but Palworld is a beefy game.” While there are expectations for improved performance with the Switch 2, he clarified that Pocketpair hasn’t yet seen any specifications for the upcoming system.
