Palworld | How many bases can you have?

In Palworld, like in any survival game, establishing and expanding your base is a crucial aspect of gameplay. As your base evolves, you might contemplate the idea of creating additional bases in different locations.

Can you have multiple bases in Palworld?

Yes, you can indeed have more than one base in Palworld. In fact, there’s virtually no limit to the number of bases you can build, as most structures can be freely constructed anywhere in the game world, allowing for outposts or simplified bases. However, bases featuring official Palboxes have specific regulations.

The mechanics governing bases other than your initial Palbox base are subject to stricter guidelines, particularly until certain level milestones are reached.

Palworld base unlock levels:

  • Initially, you can only place one Palbox.
  • Upon reaching Palbox level 10, you can establish a second Palbox.
  • At Palbox level 15, you can deploy a third and final Palbox.

The Palbox is a pivotal element in Palworld’s base construction, as it enables a distinct base building setup. While it’s technically feasible to build a fully operational base without a Palbox, the inability to assign Pals to tasks would render passive resource gathering impossible. Without Pals, all tasks within that base would need to be performed manually, rendering it dependent on player intervention.

An effective approach is to focus on one primary base until reaching Base Level 10, then expand to two primary bases thereafter. However, you can establish numerous secondary bases at any level.

Palworld max bases: How many can you have?

The maximum number of bases in Palworld is three, with each base slot unlocking as you level up. The second base becomes available at base level 10, while the third and final base unlocks at base level 15.

These limitations specifically apply to bases incorporating a Palbox. Unofficial outpost-style bases, on the other hand, can be constructed anywhere without fast travel capabilities.

How to build another base in Palworld

To create a fully functional and self-sufficient second base, you must attain Base Level 10 on your initial Palbox. Upon reaching this milestone, you’ll be able to place a second Palbox elsewhere in the world, starting at level 10. Consequently, you can immediately assign a crew of 10 Pals to your second base without the need to repeat the base level-raising process.

Tip: No Palbox means no Fast Travel.

If you opt to establish a secondary base without a Palbox, ensure to situate it near a Fast Travel point. Fast Travel is only available to bases equipped with a Palbox.

How to move your base in Palworld

Relocating your base in Palworld involves disassembling your current Palbox, allowing you to construct a new one in a different location. During this process, all your Pals will automatically transfer to the new Palbox, preventing any accidental omissions.

To move your base:

  1. Open your map.
  2. Hover over your current base.
  3. Hold the disassemble button (V on PC).
  4. Confirm the disassembly prompt.

Similar to unlocking the second Palbox at base level 10, disassembling your Palbox to relocate it preserves your current Base Level, sparing you from starting anew. However, you’ll need to rebuild all structures for your new base.

Best places to set up a base in Palworld

When selecting a base location, consider the following:

  • Ample flat terrain and space for future expansions.
  • Defensible positions to withstand potential raids.
  • Stay within the blue circle centered around your Palbox to maintain structure durability and Pal activity.
  • Avoid proximity to existing Fast Travel points unless you intend to establish a new one.
  • Ensure access to abundant resources for sustainable development.

With these considerations in mind, you’re equipped with the knowledge needed to thrive in Palworld. Happy building!
