Temtem: Pioneers Revealed as Survival-Crafting Spin-Off, Kickstarter Funded in Hours

Pocketpair publicly welcomed the news, signaling a friendly tone despite obvious Palworld comparisons.

Overview

  • Temtem: Pioneers, revealed during Thursday's Triple-i Initiative showcase, shifts the series from a turn-based MMO to an open-world survival game.
  • The Kickstarter campaign reached its initial goal in about eight hours and is now moving into stretch goals, according to multiple outlets.
  • Crema outlines real-time combat with direct control of up to three Temtem, 200-plus creatures to tame, and systems for gathering, base building, crafting, and co-op play.
  • The studio lists PC release on Steam and the Epic Games Store, says console plans are under discussion, and the Kickstarter page shows an estimated delivery of December 2028.
  • Coverage draws parallels to Palworld, and Pocketpair communications lead John “Bucky” Buckley publicly wished Crema well and praised the reveal trailer.
