Palworld Online opens pre-registration in South Korea
Key takeaways
- Pre-registration open in South Korea on iOS and Android
- South Korea App Store lists November 30 as release date
- Requires 2.9GB storage and iOS 12.0 or later
- Palworld original sold over 25 million copies
Palworld Online, Garena’s mobile MMORPG built under licence from PocketPair, has opened pre-registration in South Korea for iOS and Android after the title’s August 3 reveal. The studio says the game will arrive on Google Play and the App Store later this year, and the South Korea App Store currently lists November 30 as a release date.
Garena’s Palworld Online uses PocketPair’s Palworld IP, which first exploded when the original game launched in early access on Xbox and PC in January 2024 and went on to sell more than 25 million copies. The franchise has already produced spin-offs such as the Palworld Official Card Game and Krafton’s Palworld Mobile, and Garena is pitching its version as a survival-based MMORPG where players encounter, capture, battle and breed Pals.
Ahead of the full launch, Garena published device requirements and the pre-registration announcement: the South Korea listing requires 2.9GB of storage and iOS 12.0 or later on Apple devices. Garena’s role leverages its experience in global publishing, localisation and live operations, and PocketPair’s John Buckley discussed Palworld’s path from early access to a version 1.0 release this July while speaking at CGDC during ChinaJoy 2026.
Why it matters
Takeaway: pre-registration is live in South Korea now and the App Store entry shows a concrete late‑year date — November 30 — plus minimum device specs, so interested players in Korea already have a release target and the storage/iOS checklist they’ll need before launch.
