Factions in Palworld refer to multiple groups present within the Palpagos Islands. Players are sure to encounter a few of them as they explore the vast open world. Factions include both leaders and their minions (Elites and Thugs), many of whom are rather aggressive in nature, attacking players on sight, making for some challenging foes.
A list of all the available Factions in Palworld can be found below.

Much like Pokemon, Factions in Palworld consist of leaders you can battle against. They can be considered endgame bosses due to the sheer difficulty and complexity of the fights involved. Additionally, these bosses must be eliminated within a certain time limit, which further adds to the difficulty.
Defeating Faction leaders will drop a set of mesmerizing loot that can be used to enhance your character and further progress through the game.
