In Palworld, you can create Guilds to share your bases with friends but knowing how to set one up (or join one) could be explained more clearly.

Fortunately, creating and joining Guilds in Palworld is straightforward. Here’s how to do it.

How to create and join a Guild in Palworld

To make or join a Guild in Palworld:

  1. Make sure the person you want to guild with is in your multiplayer world, or you’re in theirs.
  2. Find each other in-game.
  3. The person who wants to join the other person’s Guild needs to hover their cursor (or position their camera) to be on the player whose Guild they wish to join.
  4. They should get the Join Guild option. To join, press and hold X on controller or the equivalent on keyboard.
  5. The Guild host will then get a pop-up saying the other person wishes to join; if you’re happy for them to do so, accept.

How many Guilds can you have in Palworld?

Players can have one Guild that they can ask other players to join. Guilds have a player cap of 20, so you can ask up to 19 others to join you. Unfortunately, if you’re playing on the Xbox or PC Gamepass version of the game, you’ll also be unable to edit the name of your Guild.

In the Guild menu, you will only see the number of players in your Guild—not their names. There doesn’t seem to be a way to kick Guild members at present, bar leaving the world, but Guild members can choose to leave via the Guild menu.

What are the benefits of a Guild in Palworld?

Players in a Guild can access each other’s bases and use the builds, such as workbenches and beds. My friend and I could also use the Palbox to trade Pals.

At present, however, there aren’t other benefits to being part of a Guild, though this could change with Palworld‘s full release. You don’t share experience, resources, or Pals, so it’s only worth creating a Guild with players you want to help out or hang out with.

When you leave a Guild, you no longer get access to Guild members’ bases, allowing you to join a different Guild. We’ve seen that players can only join one Guild per world. That’s not as big of an issue in smaller 4-player sessions, but if you’re playing in a Palworld dedicated server with up to 32 players, it may be more of a hindrance. We’ll update this article as we learn more about Palworld‘s Guilds.

Tip:

The best use of a Guild outside of the base building and resource gathering is enemy encounters. If you are struggling to get by a difficult cave dungeon or Tower boss, gathering your guildmates to help could give you the added boost you need.


So, there you have it. You know everything you need about making and joining guilds in Palworld. Enjoy!
