Predator Coresare an elusive crafting material needed inPalworldto create a number of late-game accessories and weapons, including Meowmere, a legendary sword that shoots cat heads and makes meowing noises (yes, you read that correctly).
They can only be collected by finding and killing the 33 rampagingPredator Palslocated throughout the world. Predator Pals are stronger and hit harder than regular Pals that share their name. Read on below to learn more about Predator Pals, Predator Cores, and the items you’re able to craft once you get your hands on them.

Nightstar Sand can only be collected in the open world, and it only spawns in desert biomes at night.
Finding, Fighting Predator Pals in Palworld
There are 33 Predator Pals in the game,scattered all across the map. They are stronger, boss-like versions of the regular Pal, and as such, they have more health and do more damage than regular Pals. They don’t appear on your map like alpha pals do, however, so scouting them out can be a bit of a pain.
Predator Pals can be distinguished by the reddish glow they emit, and they’ll have a special name, such as “Rampaging Lovander.”
Some Predator Pals only spawn in the day, while other Predator Pals only spawn at night.Once defeated, they will respawn, but it may take some time.Speeding up the day and night cycles of your world settings, or leaving the area and returning to it, may force the Predator Pal to respawn more quickly.
Below is a list of all Predator Pals currently in the game, from the lowest level to the highest, as well as their location coordinates and any other relevant notes.All Predator Pals will drop at least 1 Predator Core when defeated.
