Palworld Official Card Game: Everything You Need Before July 30
Cards, rules, products, and the free PalMods tools that turn a first trial deck into a legal list you understand.
The short version
A two-player strategy game built around Pals, Souls, battles, and base work
The Palworld Official Card Game launches worldwide July 30, 2026 with the 100-card BP01 set Dawn of Palpagos and two complete trial decks. Beginners should start with a trial deck, learn the five turn phases, then use booster cards and PalMods’ 149-card index to shape a legal 50-card main deck plus 10-card Soul Deck.
