Palworld is a survival crafting game where players can explore a vast open world filled with colorful critters known as Pals. Venturing through the world and building your base are just some of the few things players can do in this world‚ but getting into the nitty-gritty can be quite complicated if you do not know where to start. For now though‚ why not get straight into the basics and learn how to repair your weapons and gear?

Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth is the latest game in the Like a Dragon/Yakuza series. You’ll spend a lot of time with the fan favorites Ichiban Kasuga and Kazuma Kiryu. While Infinite Wealth is an imperfect game‚ it’s one filled to the brim with charm and activities. Instead of fully taking place in Japan‚ a very familiar setting for the series‚ Ichiban is given a mission to go to Hawaii to seek out his long-lost mother. While in Hawaii‚ he meets a number of interesting companions who‚ as you may expect‚ don’t start off on the right foot. Nonetheless‚ Ichiban wins over just about everyone with his charm and good-natured heart.

Palworld will captivate players with its diverse combat options‚ from when they get guns to when they get their first Pal to understand the inner workings of elemental matchups‚ to deciding what location will be the first one they venture off to start their base. However‚ something players will need to do a lot of is gathering all the resources they will need — such as Coal and Honey.
