Despite looking pretty damn good, the game doesn’t have some unrealistically high requirements. Most regular PCs can probably run it with little to no issues. Assuming the game will be well-optimized enough, that is.

Palworld is developed on Unreal Engine 5, which is known for delivering amazing graphical experiences. While some games made in it may periodically face some performance issues, it doesn’t seem to be the case for this title in particular.

But don’t forget that this is still an Early Access release, so bugs and issues, especially regarding overall performance, are to be expected. If you can’t run it perfectly yet, wait for a few patches and fixes before going straight for a rig update. Your shooting Pals will wait for you.
