Much has been said about Palworld which, despite only being released in Early Access format, has already won over thousands of players across the four corners of the planet.

Palworld is one of the current hottest events in the gaming world and recent information indicates that the Japanese game Pocket Pair already has 19 million players, more than the population of the Netherlands.

But, while that value is too high for the average consumer, Pocket Pair probably isn't too worried, as the creator also said he's sold around 12 million copies of Palworld on Steam.  Each game costs about $30, which equates to $360 million so far... not counting Xbox sales.
