My oldest is playing it. It's combining the survival aspects of ARK with the monster catching aspects of Pokemon (and the monsters can use rocket launchers, machine guns, etc, but my kid hasn't gotten to that piece yet). She just upgraded a fire "pal" to be carried around and used as a flamethrower.

It's on Steam and Game Pass and has apparently hit 815,000 concurrent users on Steam this weekend and over 2 million sales.

Here's a Forbes article about it.

ETA: Updated subject because it looks like everyone is playing Palworld.

One of my steam friends is and I was about to look at some videos of it. Dude says despite being early access, it runs smooth and is very fun. In group chat they are saying that it is pokemon with guns mixed with valheim.

I was apprehensive about it, because I didn't like Craftopia (which is what this was compared to by friends). I've had a very good time with it though. Me and friend went through a full dungeon and the pal traits give good reason to catch more of them.

This game is now second to only PUBG (before going f2p) for most concurrent players on Steam for a paid title.

I downloaded this over the weekend and had waaaay more fun than I thought I would. I'll probably dive back in tonight after work.
