The Palworld x Terraria crossover, called Tides of Terraria, is a big free update for Palworld, dropping on June 25, 2025. Made by Pocketpair, this update mixes in stuff from Terraria by Re-Logic, bringing new things to do for fans of both games. It’ll hit all platforms where Palworld is playable: PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PC (Steam and Microsoft Store), and Game Pass. Expect new content, fixes, and a bunch of Terraria-inspired goodies.
Key Features of the Crossover
- Terraria Creatures as Pals:
- You can catch, train, and fight with Terraria monsters as Pals in Palworld, though they might work a bit differently from regular Pals.
- Confirmed creatures include:
- Eye of Cthulhu: Looks like a raid boss, shown in its first form with Cave Bats around it.
- Moon Lord: Spotted in the trailer’s silhouette, maybe a tough fight or a capturable Pal, but details are unclear.
- Fans are guessing we might see Slimes, Eaters of Souls, Pixies, or Demon Eyes as Pals too.
- New Weapons and Items:
- Terra Blade: The trailer shows a Palworld character swinging this classic Terraria sword.
- Meowmere Sword: Added in the Palworld Feybreak update (December 23, 2024) as a sneak peek, it shoots projectiles and makes cat noises.
- We might get Terraria-style gear like Hallowed Armor, Silver Armor, or weapons like the Minishark.
- New Mechanics:
- Fishing: Screenshots show fishing rods with a Chillet bobber, so Terraria’s fishing system is coming to Palworld.
- Terraria’s crafting depth could beef up Palworld’s building and crafting options.
- New Content Beyond the Crossover:
- New Pals: Original Palworld creatures with elemental designs.
- New Islands: Fresh areas to explore, maybe inspired by Terraria biomes.
- New Activities and Events: Expect events like boss battles tied to the crossover.
