Palworld Player Discovers Secret Room While Exploring, Builds Base Inside

Highlights

  • A Palworld player finds a secret room hidden beneath the game’s playable world, quickly building a base beneath the surface.
  • Both the player and other fans theorized that the room could be scrapped content for the game, or potentially included in a future Palworld update.
  • Speculation about the hidden room’s purpose comes as Palworld is rumored to have a plethora of new content on the way, including more Pals, PvP, and crossplay.



While exploring the in-game world, a Palworld player discovers a secret room hidden beneath the game’s map and turns it into their own in-game base. The recent launch of the newest game from Japanese indie developer Pocket Pair has captured the attention of the internet over the past month for its unique premise. Players have plenty to do within the in-game world, between capturing Pals, challenging Palworld‘s many in-game bosses, and building up their bases. Now, one player has found a particularly unique spot to build a new base.

Base-building serves as one of the main gameplay elements of Palworld, giving players a variety of ways to spruce up their in-game homes. Palworld offers a variety of facilities for players to build, allowing them to use their Pals to generate resources like Stone and Paldium Fragments and automate the game’s crafting system. Players must also prepare their base for raids from invading factions, with both groups of Pals and in-game NPCs coming to destroy a player’s hard-built setup. Now, a Palworld player has discovered a hidden room, serving as the perfect spot for their new base.

The post’s replies were filled with speculation about the room’s purpose and the future of the hidden base. Many had speculated that the room could potentially be a boss dungeon in a future Palworld update, suggesting that the Boss Pal would destroy the player’s hard-built base. The user shared more information about the functionality of the secret room as well, suggesting that they could continue to build outside the map right up to the surface above the base. The post also reveals that the player had found a similar hidden area elsewhere in Palworld‘s in-game map.


The hidden room is far from the only potential hint about Palworld‘s future that players have discovered within the game. Palworld‘s files have leaked several pieces of in-development content, including potential new Pals coming to the game like Dark Mutant and Dragostrophe. Pocket Pair themselves have also confirmed a plethora of new updates planned for Palworld, including PvP content and raid bosses among others.
