Auroria: A playful journey adds to a list of burgeoning Palworld-likes

Auroria: A Playful Adventure, launching July 10th in the SEA region, blends classic survival mechanics with creature collection, reminiscent of Palworld. This new title combines base-building, planetary exploration, resource management, and the charming element of capturing adorable creatures.

Gameplay is a familiar mix of crafting, survival, and base construction, spiced up with hostile wildlife encounters and the unique twist of creature collection. Players will capture creatures using orbs, training them as companions – a key similarity to Palworld. While details on forced labor remain undisclosed, the trailer (below) offers further insights.

Following Palworld's success, several developers have explored similar concepts. Auroria aims to expand upon this formula, joining other games like Amikin Survival that capitalized on the trend. While a potential Palworld mobile version hasn't materialized, Auroria presents a compelling alternative.
