In a game that lets you do just about anything morally grey, the last thing you want is the police chasing after you. Here’s how to remove the Wanted status in Palworld.
Palworld has quickly become the biggest newcomer to the gaming scene in 2024. The controversial open-world survival game has had its fair share of drama, with many claiming the game plagiarised Pokemon. Despite all this, the title has seen huge success on Steam, launching itself as one of the most-played games on the platform.
With the immense freedom Palworld provides players, the last thing you’d want is to be chased by pesky authorities who disagree with your morally ambiguous actions.
So here’s how to remove your Wanted status in Palworld should the situation arise.
Palworld lets you do almost anything morally grey, including forcing pals to create weaponry. However, this isn’t considered illegal.
How to remove Wanted status in Palworld
Despite being able to literally sell and butcher humans in Palworld, there are actually some illegal things that the game can chase you up for. This comes in the form of the PIDF, which are NPCs that will chase you down with weapons and more to snuff out your evil.
Fortunately, there are ways to remove the Wanted status from your player, allowing you to continue going about your activities.
Here’s how to get rid of your Wanted status in Palworld
Kill the PIDF
Of course one of the simplest methods of removing your Wanted status is to simply kill the people that have you as Wanted. This means killing the PIDF members who are chasing you. You can also bring them back to your base to have your Pals fight with you or lure them into a boss Pal who can handle them for you.
Give Up and Die
If you really do feel guilty about the crimes you’ve committed. You can absolve yourself of your evil by simply giving up and letting the PIDF kill you. This isn’t without punishment, however, as you’ll drop all of your items. It’s recommended that you die near a fast travel point, so you can collect your belongings after respawning.
A simple way to rid yourself of any Wanted status is to just die.
Kill Witnesses
Alternatively, you can remove your Wanted status if you choose to murder any witnesses to the crime, as they won’t be able to report you to the PIDF. This alleviates you from ever getting the Wanted status in the first place.
Run Away
Running away is also an option when removing the Wanted status. This can be a tad difficult since the PIDF will chase you for quite a while before giving up. However, if you manage to run away for long enough you’ll be able to remove your Wanted status.
What causes the Wanted status in Palworld
The Wanted status can be caused by either trespassing in a Sanctuary or assaulting PIDF officers or friendly NPCs. These are only triggered if someone witnesses you committing these crimes, however, so feel free to do so as long as you’re being stealthy.
