Palworld was an instant hit upon release as the game smashed sales records in just a few weeks and gathered a sizable player base.

While the hype has toned down considerably since its launch in January, the game still retains a faithful player base. On that note, here’s Palworld‘s player count for August 2024.

Palworld August 2024 player count

Palworld had close to 1,708,406 active players in the last 30 days as per Activeplayer.io. The title lost around 43,805 monthly players during the same period.

While these figures represent the player base on all platforms, the game had a daily average of 43,033 players in the last 30 days on Steam according to Steam Charts. The Steam statistics are a noticeable improvement from June, with the primary reason being the massive Sakurajima update that added free content to the game.

Despite the boost, the daily player count on Steam remains leagues below launch week, which saw more than one million users log into the game every day. This all but confirms that interest in Palworld has dropped significantly.

Peak player count

Palworld recorded a peak player count of around seven million players across all platforms in January. On Steam alone, the title amassed a peak of 2,101,535 players. These figures saw the survival game briefly overtake titans like CS2, Dota 2, and PUBG on Steam’s concurrent player charts.

It’s unlikely that the title will be able to climb to such heights again, although a PlayStation port could certainly help improve the player count.

On that front, a PS5 port seems closer than ever, as Pocket pair recently announced a joint venture company named Palworld Entertainment with Sony Music. The company will look to accelerate the global development of Palworld, and porting it to a major platform should be the first step in that process.

That was Palworld’s player count for August. If you want to fill up your Paldeck with meta Pals, check out our guides on the best Ice, Dark, and Dragon Pals.
