Palworld's first raid is coming "soon," and it stars 𓄧an evil goth.

Palworld developer Pocketpair has casually announced Bellanoir, the survival game's first raid. We don't yet have a r💮elease date, but thanks to the trailer below, we know it's "coming soon," and it looks like it stars what can only be described as a very imposi🌳ng goth.

This new creature can only be the titular Bellanoir that the raid's title is referrin💞g to. I know we're all a little sick of the Pokemon and Palworld comparisons at this point, but it wouldn't be a grave injustice to describe this new creature as an evil Gardevoir. Plenty of players have said as much, with fans on Twitter and Reddit quickly dubbing Bellanoir their new goth girlfriend. 

The reactions to Palworld's first raid announcement are overwhelmingly positive, pretty unsurprisingly. The responses are full of the typical "It is almost time gamers..." and "Lets goooo!!!" from various players and tweeters, and it sounds li🤡ke everyone's very keen ඣto take on goth Gardevoir. 

Updates like these should be helped out quicker by Palworld's new bug hunters. Palworld's developer recently called for players to help with bug hunting to help get future updates out the🐽 door quicker and in better shape. It's not hard to imagine eager players tackling content liﷺke raids before they're released for public consumption. If you're 🦋interested in taking part, applications for the new program are still open.

Palworld has been one of 2024's surprise smash-hit successes, but we might need more like it if this year is going to compete with Hogwarts Legacy and 2023. One analyst recently predicted that 2024 needs more surprise hits like Palworld and Hel🧔ldivers 2 if the games industry at large is going to stand aཧny chance of having a positive outlook.
