Fans who missed the launch of the Palworld Official Card Game have a reason to wait rather than pay inflated resale prices. Bushiroad has confirmed that Dawn of Palpagos, the game's first full expansion, will receive additional stock and a second-edition print run. A release date for the new printing has not been announced, but the move addresses one of the card game's biggest problems since launch: strong demand outpacing supply.
What changed for Dawn of Palpagos buyers?
The Palworld Official Card Game's creators acknowledged early supply problems that left many fans unable to find Dawn of Palpagos. Bushiroad is now working to send more existing stock to stores and has confirmed a separate second-edition print run for the set. Further information, including when that printing will reach retailers, is expected later.
That distinction matters for collectors and players deciding whether to buy now. The announcement does not provide a firm timetable, so shoppers still cannot plan around a specific launch date. However, it signals that the first set is not being treated as a one-time product with no further supply. Waiting for official stock could be a more sensible option than immediately turning to the secondary market.
Who is affected by the card shortage?
Dawn of Palpagos contains 100 unique cards across four rarities, as well as 61 alternate parallel versions. Its lineup includes recognizable Pals such as Chillet and Lyleen, along with human characters including Zoe and Lily. The initial release also arrived alongside two trial decks, giving newcomers more than one way to start collecting or learning the game.
The set's popularity quickly created opportunities for scalpers. Sealed boxes were resold at significant markups, while individual cards reached prices in the hundreds or thousands of dollars. The gold SSS version of Cattiva became the standout chase card, with some early copies reportedly selling for as much as $4,000. Additional printings will not guarantee lower prices for every rare card, particularly for collectors seeking specific variants, but they could reduce pressure on sealed product and ordinary set completion.
What comes next for the Palworld TCG?
The reprint announcement arrives as Bushiroad begins outlining the game's longer-term schedule. Legends Awaken is planned as the second full expansion in October 2026. It will add Pals including Chillet Ignis and Jetragon, which have not appeared in the card game before. Two new trial decks are scheduled for December 2026.
The TCG is also part of a wider expansion for the franchise. Palworld's main game received its Version 1.0 update in early July, completing its launch more than two years after entering early access. Pocketpair has additionally confirmed Palworld: Palfarm, a farming simulation, and Palworld Online, a mobile-focused MMORPG. Those projects give the card game a broader franchise context, while the reprint shows that immediate attention remains focused on meeting demand for the original set.

Expert View
The reprint is a practical response to a predictable supply problem, and it gives new players a reason to avoid paying extreme secondary-market prices for a recently launched game. It is not a complete solution for collectors chasing the rarest parallel cards, and the lack of a release date leaves some uncertainty. For most interested buyers, waiting for confirmed retail availability looks more reasonable than rushing into an inflated resale market.
