Palworld's new katana causes more frustration than excitement
Initial feedback on the Katana indicates necessary improvements
The greatest frustration ever expressed Palworld Players since the katana's introduction have known its limited attack. Instead of hacking and hacking at will, players can only deliver a single, albeit powerful, strike.

Of course, the Feybreak update brings an impressive number of new weapons to round out a player's arsenal, but the long-range weapons like the Advanced Bow were more satisfying than ones like the Katana. On Reddit, Exotic-Mushroom even went so far as to describe the sword as “useless” because the mechanics of the weapon were not particularly practical.
Palworld's katana still has an advantage
Despite the frustration many feel with the weapon, the katana is still quite powerful for a sword that is classified as a common item. If you can successfully execute an attack, the katana will do a lot of damage, but landing a good hit with it is easier said than done. It also doesn't carry as much weight as many other weapons, which makes it useful in that sense. From those fresh weapons to brand new sidekicks, Palworld has brought an impressive upgrade to life, but the Katana still needs some refinement if it wants to stand out with such powerful features.
After starting Feybreak Palworld reached over 212,000 concurrent players on Steam.
Feybreak marks a new chapter for Palworld
Now this Palworld With the first year almost complete, Feybreak was a powerful end to 2024 for the game. This update promises a bright 2025 Palworld if it continues to bring great content with its future upgrades. However, there is still a lot of room for improvement and a more satisfying katana could be a solid start. The melee weapon has the potential to become a fan favorite, but its strange single-slash attack could prevent it from having a loyal fan base.
As the new year progresses, it will be exciting to see what comes next Palworld. While the Katana may be disappointing to some, there is at least a chance that it will be optimized in the future.
