The official Japanese X (formerly Twitter) account for Pocketpair’s Palworld game announced on Friday that the game released on Friday in Japan for the PlayStation 5.
The game had launched on PS5 in 68 countries and territories on September 25, but Pocketpair later stated the game would not launch for PS5 in Japan on that same day.
Sony Music Entertainment Japan Inc. announced in July that it and its subsidiary Aniplex, along with Pocketpair, have established a new joint venture named Palworld Entertainment.
Pocketpair debuted its Palworld multiplayer survival game on January 19 as a Steam Early Access game.
