Palworld developer Pocketpair has seemingly introduced a courting sim spinoff by the title of Greater than Simply Friends, however there’s purpose to imagine it won’t be a critical prospect.
The sport was revealed through a publish on X earlier right this moment, through which Pocketpair calls the sport “a Palworld college romance VN (visible novel)” and invitations gamers to wishlist it through its model new Steam web page.
This is not the primary time Greater than Simply Friends has appeared, although. The primary announcement for the sport got here on April Fools’ Day final yr, at which level Pocketpair stated it might launch on the identical day the next yr (i.e. tomorrow).
In fact, the truth that the sport was already introduced as a part of Pocketpair’s April Fools’ japery final yr does not essentially imply it is not actual this time round, however I believe it is honest to take the venture with a really giant pinch of salt, at any fee.
Then once more, again then, I wrote that Pocketpair had willed the venture into real existence by advantage of making it as a joke, and that could be what’s occurred. Whether it is, nicely, we may be past assist this time round.
Assuming Palworld: Greater than Simply Friends is actual, you will be attending the Palagos Non-public Academy, the place you will meet numerous romanceable Friends. You may “keep mates with the Friends, develop romantic relationships with them, and even dismember and eat them”.
It somewhat appears like Greater than Simply Friends is taking a extra Hatoful Boyfriend-style method to courting sims somewhat than the standard path; this feels somewhat like a parody effort to me.
Pocketpair additionally says it is freely giving a Lovander physique pillow to rejoice the brand new announcement of Palworld: Greater than Simply Friends. If you wish to enter the competitors (once more, assuming it is actual), you are able to do so on X.
