Boss Towers — Palworld Locations Guide

14 mapped6 regions

Boss Towers gate progression in Palworld. The five base-game towers belong to the Rayne Syndicate (Zoe and Grizzbolt), Free Pal Alliance (Lily and Lyleen), Brothers of the Eternal Pyre (Axel and Orserk), PIDF (Marcus and Faleris), and PAL Genetic Research Unit (Victor and Shadowbeak). The Sakurajima DLC adds the Moonflower Tower (Saya and Selyne) and the Feybreak DLC adds the Feybreak Tower (Bjorn and Bastigor) — seven towers in total.

Each fight has a 10-minute time limit. The tower entrance is its own fast-travel point — unlock it on approach so you can respawn at the door if you wipe inside.

How tower fights work

  • •Each tower fight has a hard 10-minute timer. Run the clock out and you fail the encounter — it does not pause for menus or dialogue.
  • •The tower entrance is its own fast-travel point. Unlock it on first approach so a wipe sends you straight back to the door instead of the nearest open-world statue.
  • •You fight the human Pal Tamer alongside their partner Pal — the table above lists the partner Pal with the elements that matter for damage planning.
  • •Dropping the boss Pal does not capture it directly — story-bound rewards (technology points, progression flags) are what you walk away with.
  • •Recommended Pal level: scale roughly with each tower's region — the regions on the right of the table sit later in the level curve. We don't list per-tower minimums because the game doesn't enforce them.

Frequently asked

Can I retry a tower fight if I lose?

Yes — wiping or running out the clock just kicks you out. Walk back through the door and the encounter restarts. Bring more healing items and a Pal that counters the table's "Element" column.

Do I need both DLCs to fight the Sakurajima and Feybreak towers?

Yes. Moonflower Tower (Saya / Selyne) requires the Sakurajima content; Feybreak Tower (Bjorn / Bastigor) requires the Feybreak content. The five base-game towers are accessible to all owners.

Are tower bosses related to Sealed Realms?

They're separate systems. Towers are timed faction fights gated by story; Sealed Realms are open-world boss arenas unlocked with key items. Both reward unique high-level Pals (towers via story progression, realms via guaranteed capture).
