Palworld 的未来:持续更新还是转型为持续运营游戏?

Pocketpair 首席执行官水户部拓郎在接受 ASCII Japan 采访时,探讨了 Palworld 的未来发展方向,重点关注了将其转变为持续运营游戏的可能性以及玩家的预期。

商业前景与挑战并存

Palworld 的未来发展方向

采访中,水户部拓郎表示,目前 Palworld 的未来发展方向尚未最终确定。开发团队 Pocketpair 计划更新游戏内容,包括新增地图、更多伙伴(Pals)和团队首领(raid bosses),以保持游戏的新鲜感。但他同时指出,Palworld 的未来有两种可能性:

  1. 完整版买断制游戏 (B2P): 一次性购买即可完整体验游戏。
  2. 持续运营游戏 (LiveOps): 通过持续发布付费内容来盈利,例如皮肤和战斗通行证。

水户部拓郎坦言:“从商业角度来看,将 Palworld 转变为持续运营游戏将带来更多盈利机会,并延长游戏寿命。” 然而,他也指出 Palworld 的初始设计并非基于持续运营模式,“因此如果走这条路,肯定会面临挑战。”

另一个需要仔细考虑的方面是,持续运营模式是否符合 Palworld 粉丝的期待。“最重要的是要确定玩家是否想要这种模式,” 他补充道,“通常情况下,一款游戏必须先采用免费游玩 (F2P) 模式,然后再添加付费内容,例如皮肤和战斗通行证。但 Palworld 是一款买断制游戏 (B2P),因此将其转变为持续运营游戏并非易事。”

他进一步解释说:“有很多游戏成功地转向了 F2P 模式,” 例如《绝地求生》和《Fall Guys》,“但这两种游戏都花了数年时间才成功转型。虽然我理解持续运营模式对业务有利,但这并不简单。”

目前,Pocketpair 正在探索更多方法来吸引新玩家并留住现有玩家。水户部拓郎提到,他们也考虑过广告变现,但前提是这对于移动游戏比较容易实现,而 PC 游戏则很难适应。“即使对 PC 游戏有效,Steam 玩家也会讨厌广告。很多用户在看到广告时都会生气。”

“所以,目前我们正在仔细权衡 Palworld 应该采取的方向,” 水户部拓郎总结道。目前,Palworld 仍处于抢先体验阶段,最近刚刚发布了大型更新 Sakurajima,并推出了备受期待的 PvP 竞技场模式。
