Are Palworld co-op multiplayer worlds always online?

No, Palworld multiplayer worlds are only online when the host is playing the game. That means if their PC is off, or they are playing another game, you can’t get into the world to explore without them.

If you want an always-online solution, you’ll need to play on one of Palworld’s dedicated servers or create one for yourself. That way, the world will be constantly online, and you can drop in at any time.
