Palworld presents an interesting mix of gameplay features to keep players returning for more, including the option to trade Pals. However, many players do not know how to trade Pals, thus preventing them from enjoying the game to its fullest potential. Keeping this in mind, this guide will cover everything there is to know about trading Pals in Palworld and other useful information.

Is Trading Pals in Palworld Possible?

Palworld is in Early Access, meaning it lacks many features and fixes. Currently, the game also does not allow trading Pals with other players in multiplayer. The good news is all is not lost, as there is a way to fix this problem.

The closest thing to trading Pals in Palworld involves buying/selling Pals with merchants. Essentially, players can use these merchants as a place of trade, which also applies to the single-player mode.

Officially, trading will make its way to Palworld soon, even though it was unavailable during the initial release. Developers have continually assured players that trading will be available at a later time.

How to Drop Pals for Trades

Players also have the option to drop Pals for their friends to pick up, and they can do so by following these simple steps:

1. Open the menu.
2. Select Party.
3. Hover over the Pal
4. Press R on the keyboard or right-stick on a controller to drop the Pal.
5. Accept the pop-up warning.
6. Players nearby can now pick up the Pal.
7. Rinse and repeat.

How to Trade Pals via Palbox

Trading via Palbox is by far the best way to trade with other players, especially since it is safer and secure without any chances of third-party intervention. To utilize this method for trading, follow these steps:

1. Ensure both parties belong to the same guild.
2. Once both parties are online, equip the Palbox.
3. Use the Pal Management menu to equip the Pal in the Palbox by dragging and dropping it.
4. Quit the Pal Management menu for the other player to follow suit.
