Pocketpair, the developer behind Palworld, is investing nearly half a million dollars monthly to maintain the game’s servers, buoyed by its massive success.
However, the team still requires additional support and is eagerly seeking talented individuals to join them. In a tweet from their Japanese account (translated by DeepL), the studio expressed their need for team members, particularly in planning and engineering roles, emphasizing their openness to candidates with diverse engine experience.
In a more whimsical tone, the auto-translated tweet humorously noted their “severe lack of friends.” Despite being a successful title with over 19 million players across Steam and Xbox, Pocketpair faces the challenge of managing this vast player base effectively.
While fluency in Japanese and possibly residency in Japan might be advantageous due to Pocketpair’s origins, the studio offers a welcoming work environment with flexible hours, comprehensive benefits, and minimal overtime, contrasting the sometimes arduous experiences depicted in Palworld.
