Sony Music Entertainment (Japan) Inc.  and its group subsidiary Aniplex Inc. and Pocketpair, Inc. have established a joint venture (hereinafter referred to as JV), Palworld Entertainment Inc., to expand and develop new businesses associated with the hit game, "Palworld." The announcement was made today in a joint release by all three companies.

Multiplayer open world survival game 

"Palworld," a multiplayer open world survival game created, produced and published by Japanese developer, Pocketpair, became the breakout hit of 2024 when the total number of players surpassed 25 million after only one month in release.

JV efforts will begin with the development of exclusive merchandise based on the game - which will debut and sell at the Pocketpair booth during "Bilibili World 2024" and be made available for pre-order at Aniplex and its subsidiaries, Aniplex of America and Aniplex Shanghai, e-commerce sites with more detailed information at a later date.
