We look forward to continuing to evolve the game’s ever-growing world through new avenues for adventure and creativity for many years to come.”

Palia on Xbox and PlayStation Elderwood DLC Still

With Palia on Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5, players will be introduced to the magical Elderwood. A dense and magical forested Adventure Zone filled with surprises around every corner. Elderwood offers players fresh ways to explore and gather with friends, bringing in familiar characters like Nai’o and Subira to guide players on their new quests.

In Elderwood, players will search for new themed collectibles, hostile huntable creatures, such as the Ogapuu, and elusive ones, such as the Shmole. Additionally, players can look forward to unearthing Artifacts hidden deep in the DLC. Artifacts unlock a brand new equipment type called Relics, which will unlock your true potential by providing you and your party with unique buffs. Elderwood also introduces new artifacts, fish, insects, plushes, and decor to transform players’ homes in Palia.

Palia players looking to jump back in with their friends on May 13 can look forward to the return of Palia’s “Refer A Friend” program. By inviting their friends to Palia, Palians can earn the “Elderwood Fun Guy” Plush in five different sizes. And players who missed out on the original Refer A Friend rewards will have another opportunity to earn those goodies for a limited time.

Palia is also available on Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, and GeForce Now, and will arrive on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S on May 13, 2025.
