Can I use mods in Palworld?
Summary
Q.Can I use mods in Palworld?
A.Yes — Palworld doesn’t have official Steam Workshop support at launch, but community mods are already widespread on PC (mostly via Nexus Mods); Pocketpair has said official workshop support is planned “after launch,” and mods are best used offline or on private servers because updates and platform differences can break them or cause bans on official servers.

Short answer: Yes — you can use mods in Palworld on PC, but official in-game/Steam Workshop support wasn’t available at launch and was planned to arrive “after launch,” so most modding today is community-driven and installed manually. See the developer’s Steam FAQ where Pocketpair says Steam Workshop support is expected later developer Steam FAQ.
What that means in practice: the PC mod scene is active (many mods are hosted on Nexus Mods for Palworld) and toolchains like UE4SS, .pak replacers, and mod managers (Vortex) are commonly used. Be cautious: major updates or packaging changes (Steam vs Xbox/GamePass formats) frequently break mods, and some hosts (e.g., Nexus) will avoid Pokémon-themed assets for legal reasons. Also avoid using cheat-style mods on official multiplayer servers — private/dedicated servers and single‑player are the safe places to mod, while official servers may block or lead to bans.
