Can you get Palworld through PC Game Pass?
Do not assume Palworld is currently included in PC Game Pass. Xbox says catalog titles and availability can vary by time, region, plan, and platform, and access ends if a subscription expires or a title leaves the catalog. Check the live PC Game Pass catalog for your region and plan before choosing that route. Xbox says PC Game Pass uses the Xbox PC app and requires Windows 10/11 version 22H2 or later.
