A Palworld player has shared their discovery regarding a game-breaking Pal glitch that caused their game to crash.

Palworld’s launch was well-received by players, given that the game quickly rose to the top of Steam charts in its first week of release, surpassing some of Steam’s popular titles such as Dota 2, Counter-Strike 2, Baldur’s Gate 3, and many others.

However, the game is currently still in early access. Hence, it’s not surprising to see “hiccups” happening from time to time.

For example, one player shared their discovery about coming across a “digivolving” Cattiva, while another player found out that their Vixy had grown into an abnormal size.

As it turns out, the latter issue doesn’t seem only to affect one player. A player has encountered a similar glitch, causing their Penking to turn “absolutely massive.”

In a Reddit thread, the player managed to successfully capture this phenomenon, sharing how their abnormally large Penking looked in the game.

“So I picked up a Penking in mine and my friend’s world and it turned absolutely massive and crashed the game. No mods haven’t seen anyone else have this, but it was incredible,” they explained.

This discovery has garnered the attention of other players, and some didn’t even hesitate to call the creature “Dynamax Penking” and “California Penking.” One user even wrote “Attack on Penking,” referring to the popular anime Attack on Titan.

“When your Pal so chunky his fat *** crash the entire server,” one user wrote.

“Ha, yes, that’s a common new player mistake. You wanted a Penking but caught a Pemperor instead. He now rules over your puny world as his power can only grow from this point, ” another mentioned.

“Your Penking evolved into Pengod,” another chimed in.

While some players claimed that this isn’t something new, others couldn’t help but respond with hilarious jokes. Additionally, with more updates added in the future, it’s likely that this bug will get patched.
