Boosting services are usually seen in competitive or grindy MMORPG titles, but it turns out, these services are available for Palworld as well.

League of Legends, Overwatch 2, Valorant, and other online multiplayer titles are no strangers when it comes to boosting services.

These services generally involve paying a higher-skill player to play on one’s account to achieve a specific goal, usually climbing the ranked ladder or grinding to a particular level.

However, in a shocking turn of events, one Palworld player has discovered that these services exist for the game. Titled “This is so funny,” the user shared what looked like an ad for boosting services for Palworld in a Reddit thread.

“Like, why would anyone pay for a boosting service for a game like Palworld,” they mentioned. Of course, this user’s eyebrow-raising discovery has raised several questions from other players, with many sharing their opinions and thoughts on why this is possible.

“You gotta be the best like no one ever was… but that whole playing the game part is just a drag for some people I guess?” one person wrote, to which another replied with “Literally paying to not play the game lol.”

“This is a single-player game, not an MMO, LMFAO. Boost what? Edit some stats on cheat engine and call it a day?” asked another.

Some players in the comments even called these services “insane,” “cringe,” and “pathetic,” given that they’re equivalent to not playing the game the way it’s supposed to.

However, some players think these are likely aimed at those who play on public or community servers, which game’s settings can’t be edited. One user explained their experience, claiming they lost their progression when the servers reset.

Afterward, they proceeded to mention the inevitable experience of hackers nuking the servers, which resulted in people getting instantly killed, sent to the sky, having their Palbox destroyed, Pals stolen, and many others.

Seeing this explanation, one player couldn’t help but wonder: “What if the hackers who are destroying people’s bases and stealing their Pals are the same guys who are selling this ‘service’? That would be a sneaky way to increase demand.”
