Weapons in Palworld are incredibly important if you want to succeed in some of the tough battles ahead of you. While you can leave some fighting to your pals, or even the special weapons they get, you really need to arm yourself to survive base raids and take on the Syndicate properly. We've made a list of every weapon in the game right here for you, all of which can be unlocked with the Palworld Technology tree.

Palworld Melee Weapons

Melee weapons in Palworld are, ultimately, not as effective as their ranged counterparts. However, they also don't require ammo, making their upkeep a lot easier to manage. Here's the list of the current Palworld Melee Weapons.
