Palworld lead Takuro Mizobe has expressed his adoration for the creator of Megabonk after its creator decided to remove the game from the "Debut Indie Game" category at The Game Awards 2025.
Megabonk is a banger, plain and simple. In a year with games like Death Stranding 2, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, and Ghost of Yotei, Megabonk stands among them as one of the most exciting games of the year. Major fans include Baldur's Gate 3's publishing director, Expedition 33 developers (who are rooting for it to win Game of the Year), and Palworld developer Pocketpair's publishing director and communications lead, John "Bucky" Buckley, who hasn't stopped talking about the game since it launched.
