Trade pals in Palworld to expand your Paldeck and diversify your creature-driven empire on the Palpagos Island.
Palworld offers the perfect blend of diverse gameplay elements. That’s one of the reasons why it sold 7 million copies only five days after the beginning of the early access period. It comes with a ton of great features, including co-op gameplay and Steam-specific dedicated server support.
If you are enjoying one of these multiplayer components of the game, keep in mind that you can trade pals in Palworld. Whether it’s with your friends or other creature-catchers, you can easily dive into pal commerce in Pocketpair’s smash-hit game.
How to Trade Pals with Friends in Palworld?
You can trade pals in Palworld as long as you are in the same world as the other player. It’s a quite straightforward process. Follow the simple steps below to give a pal to another player or receive pals from them.
- Ensure that the player you’re trading with is in the same world.
- Make sure that the pal you want to trade is in your inventory, as well.
- Get closer to the other player.
- Hit the Menu button if you’re playing Palworld on Xbox. Press P if you are on the Steam version.
- Decide which pal you’re going to trade and drop it by pressing Right Stick on Xbox. (Press R if you are on PC)
- This will drop the chosen pal onto the ground. However, keep in mind that players from other guilds can also pick it up.
- Once it’s on the ground, the other player can take it contained in a Pal Sphere. They can even change the pal names picking them up.
That’s it. That’s how you can trade pals in Palworld with anyone. Although it’s quite simple, this method shouldn’t be your go-to option if you are playing in a crowded server.
In those cases, we suggest joining a guild with the player you’re trading with. That way, no one will be able to swoop right in and take your precious pal. Being robbed of a pal is no fun, especially if it’s a flying pal mount.
Trade Pals in Palworld Using Palbox
You can also trade pals using one of the most fundamental structures in your base, the Palbox, which you probably built as it’s one of the things to do first in Palworld. Follow the simple steps below to trade these lovely creatures with your friends in the game.
Ensure you and your friend are in the same Guild to trade using a Palbox.
- Make sure the pal you want to trade is in your party.
- Go to the Palbox and open the Palbox Management screen by hitting X if you are on the Xbox controller. (Hit F if you’re playing the game’s Steam version).
- Drag the pal from your party to the base section in the management screen.
- Have your friend open the Palbox and simply drag the Pal from the base section to their inventory.
That’s it! Here are two methods to trade pals in Palworld. You can easily give pals to other players or receive new ones from them. However, it’s important to have a stable internet connection before trading items in Palworld.
Otherwise, issues that occur in Palworld multiplayer issues can disrupt the whole process, resulting in glitches that remove the pals on the ground altogether.
