Do we have a regional breakdown of the sales?
My bet is that Brazil is on top or at least in the top 3.

We do:

Eh, I thought we would see something unusual, guess is just my bubble that has been talking about this game 24/7. Brazil is just that tiny in gaming space despite its huge territory 

I was joking but I think the response is also in regards to the Pokemon mod that got struck down by Nintendo the other day.

The only thing this whole thing is making me learn is that however derivative a game might be or even on the limit of copyright/IP infringment,

1) Open World craft/survival game on early access are popular despite their unfinished state.

2) The first statement is even more popular if linked even if indirectly with a popular IP.

3) China is gonna be the biggest market for this game and his probably why the concurrent number of players record could be beat during the middle of night.

Edit :

Although this is coincidental most probably, one of the popular streamers I watch is literally playing an Ark like with most similar gameplay mechanics that PalWorld adheres to. Guess what ? It just released yesterday and it's already doing good numbers on Twitch (and Steam most probably). The game's name is Enshrouded. It's also early access of course. Prepare yourselves to see a shit ton of those to nauseum in the coming years hehehe.

The game is starting to remind me more of a combination between dragon quest and battlefield.

Behold: humor

Edit: God dammit I forgot that the mobile version of this site is complete garbage. Here is the image I intended to share.

Once this game is finished, it will probably outsell Pokemon Scarlet/Violet.

And it wouldn't be a surprise if it reviews better too.

If it ever gets finished. Their previous games are still in Early Access years after release so don't expect them to have a competent schedule to finish the game. 

Do you think Palworld might break 20 million units by march?
