Palworld's Success on Various Platforms
According to developer Pocketpair, 12 million of Palworld's players are on Steam, while Xbox Wire reports that Xbox and Windows PC account for the remaining 7 million.

The popularity of the Steam version is understandable as it allows for more multiplayer interaction.
