Is Palworld Available on Mobile?
As of this writing, there is no official Palworld app released for either the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. Pocketpair has not announced definitive plans for Palworld iOS or Palworld Android down the line either.
The developer did issue a warning that fake Palworld games were appearing on both mobile stores and these titles have no affiliation with Pocketpair. The studio has reported these imposter apps but recommends avoiding downloading them entirely as they could compromise personal data or enable fraud.
So while Palworld continues its dominance around PC gamers and Xbox Game Pass subscribers, mobile users are still out of luck. However, there is one potential option for cloud streaming the game to phones and tablets.
