Palworld has plenty of Pals available for players to catch, and while some of them you can access since the very beginning, a handful are very difficult to obtain, like Anubis. This guardian of the desert does not spawn in the wild, so here’s how to find it and catch it in the game.
Palworld took the gaming world by storm and in less than a week since it launched, became the second-highest-played game on Steam. This is mainly because of the mix of mechanics it offers players, allowing them to explore, harvest, and craft items, as well as catching and raising ‘Pals’ to fight.
As in Pokemon, some of the species in the game are harder to find than others, like this Egyptian Lucario knockoff called Anubis. This guardian of the desert is a Ground-type Pal you won’t find roaming around the vast areas of the Palpagos Island, as it does not spawn in the wild.
However, there is a way to catch it, but it requires a lot of patience and preparation.
How to find Anubis in Palworld
The only location for Alpha Anubis is right in the middle of the Twilight Dunes, where you’ll see it walking around a Statue of Power.

This Egyptian creature can be found in Palworld as an Alpha Pal, meaning there’s only one in the whole game – and you have to fight it to catch it.
Strengths & weaknesses
Anubis will be level 47, so you need to train your team properly if you want to be up to par. Keep in mind that as a Ground-type Pal, it’s strong against Electric-type monsters and weak to Grass-type ones, so make sure you include Pals like Mossanda, Robinquill, or Mammorest to your roster.
In addition, gear up with the strongest guns you can craft, as well as plenty of ammo, Legendary Spheres, and both Heat and Cold Resistant clothing as you’ll melt during the daytime and freeze at night.
Once you manage to catch it, Anubis will be a great teammate thanks to the Guardian of the Desert Partner Skill, which applies Ground damage to the player’s attacks, and also increases the chances of Anubis dodging hits in battle.
As a base worker, it’s good with Handiwork, Mining, and Transporting, but given its high power, it will be a waste to keep it there.
