Currently, there are 33 achievements in total, however, more are likely to be added with future updates as they were with the Sakurajima and Feybreak updates. While these achievements aren’t worth anything other than bragging rights on Steam, you can potentially add a total of 1,830 to your Xbox GamerScore if you’re playing on the platform.

Here are all of the achievements currently up for grabs in Palworld, along with how to get them, and how much each is worth on Xbox.

Achievements for Catching Pals in Palworld

The first set of achievements in Palworld is awarded for capturing Pals (or humans), either a certain amount of specific Pals. Some of these were included at the initial release, while others were added in the Sakurajima and Feybreak updates.

It’s worth noting that you don’t actually have to capture Pals in order to get these achievements, as hatching Pals from wild eggs or those you’ve obtained through breeding also counts as capturing Pals. Purchasing Pals from Black Marketeers or Pal Merchants also counts towards these achievements.

With the addition of the Sakurajima update in June 2024, and then the Feybreak update in December 2024, Raid Bosses were added that can be summoned using Slabs at a Summoning Altar. You can’t capture raid bosses, but you do have a chance to get them from dropped eggs after these fights. These are very high-level bosses, but there are achievements available for defeating all of them:

Tips for catching Pals in Palworld

If you want to capture Pals in Palworld, there are a few things that you’ll need to bear in mind. Not only do you need to make sure that you are at the right level to take on a high-level Pal, but you also need to make sure that you’re using the appropriate Sphere for the level of Pal you’re attempting to capture. There’s no point taking a basic Pal Sphere into battle with a level 50 Frostallion, for instance. You’re much better off taking a Legendary Sphere.

It’s a good idea to reduce the health of whichever Pal you’re trying to capture to the lowest you possibly can before you start throwing Pal Spheres, and you stand a higher chance of getting a successful capture if you catch the Pal unaware and throw the sphere from behind it.

Tips for beating Tower Bosses in Palworld

Each Tower Boss Duo has its own tactics in order to successfully defeat them, but some good pointers are:

  • Use the pillars around the arena for cover
  • Take Pals with you that are strong against the Pal type within the Tower
  • Make sure you’re at least the same level as the Pal within the Tower, preferably a couple of levels above
