"Palworld's Soaring Server Costs Spark Cloud Service Price War"

Palworld's server costs have surged by 359% since January, reaching almost $500,000 for February alone due to the influx of 19 million players. Pocketpair CEO Takuro Mizobe estimates that maintaining the game during its early access period could cost over $5 million a year at this rate. Despite the high costs, the team is committed to ensuring uninterrupted service for players. With upcoming updates and potential fluctuations in player numbers, the server costs are expected to vary throughout 2024.
