Palworld’s first raid is coming “soon,” and it stars an evil goth.

Palworld developer Pocketpair has casually announced Bellanoir, the survival game’s first raid. We don’t yet have a release date, but thanks to the trailer below, we know it’s “coming soon,” and it looks like it stars what can only be described as a very imposing goth.

This new creature can only be the titular Bellanoir that the raid’s title is referring to. I know we’re all a little sick of the Pokemon and Palworld comparisons at this point, but it wouldn’t be a grave injustice to describe this new creature as an evil Gardevoir. Plenty of players have said as much, with fans on Twitter and Reddit quickly dubbing Bellanoir their new goth girlfriend.

The reactions to Palworld’s first raid announcement are overwhelmingly positive, pretty unsurprisingly. The responses are full of the typical “It is almost time gamers…” and “Lets goooo!!!” from various players and tweeters, and it sounds like everyone’s very keen to take on goth Gardevoir.

Updates like these should be helped out quicker by Palworld’s new bug hunters. Palworld’s developer recently called for players to help with bug huntingto help get future updates out the door quicker and in better shape.It’s not hard to imagine eager players tackling content like raids before they’re released for public consumption. If you’re interested in taking part, applications for the new program are still open.
