After revealing that the long-awaited 1.0 release of Palworld is coming next year, Pocketpair global community manager John "Bucky" Buckley has been responding to feedback online – including criticism of the survival game's "Early Access" label.
Responding directly to journalist Chris Scullion, who wrote that he wishes developers "could ditch the 'Early Access' gimmick" as titles like Palworld are popular enough to be perceived as full releases, Bucky explains he doesn't "quite get the correlation between early access and number of players here." The online thread continues, with Bucky describing why Pocketpair decided to launch Palworld into Early Access.
