The world in Palworld is rather expansive, with rolling hills, wide open fields and dense forests to explore and navigate. Doing so takes time, obviously, even once you've acquired a glider to help you with crossing gaps and reaching solitary locations.

Turning some of your loyal Pals into mounts is a potential solution. With a little bit of effort, you can scrape together the materials to make harnesses and saddles that allow you to ride your Pals, letting you bound across the world at faster speeds and even use them to fight in battles. It all starts with a bench.

Palworld is in Early Access, meaning that the details below are liable to change over the course of development.

How To Build A Pal Gear Workbench

The first step to acquiring a mount is understanding what it requires - you will need to craft a specific Key Item for each species of Pal you want to be able to mount. This is carried out at the Pal Gear Workbench, which is where you'll craft every special ability unlocker.

The Pal Gear Workbench is a Level 6 technology and requires ten Paldium Fragments, 30 Wood, and two pieces of Cloth to build.

Building the Workbench is only the first step, however.

How To Unlock Mount Saddles

Before you can start crafting a Mount Saddle, you'll need to acquire the Pal that you want to ride. For example, if you want to ride a Rushroar, you'll first need to actually capture a Rushroar of your own. Once you do that, you'll reveal the Rushroar Saddle in your Technology menu, and the item must be researched with Technology Points.

Once you've researched the Saddle for the mount you desire, you can craft it at the Pal Gear Workbench.

Saddles invariably require a decent amount of Leather, which can be acquired from many early-game Pals such as Foxparks and Fuack.

They'll also often require items that are related to the potential mount Pal in question; for example, an Eikthyrdeer Saddle requires Horns, and a Surfent Saddle will require Pal Fluids.

After crafting a Saddle, you'll unlock that Pal's riding ability. This allows you to ride them as long as you have them in your party and summoned.

Once mounted, you'll be granted access to your mount's abilities, allowing you to control them directly in combat.

Saddles (and the rest of the items crafted at the Pal Gear Workbench) are Key Items, which means they don't take up slots in your normal inventory and can be used at any time, as long as you have the right Pals in your party and/or summoned.

How To Use A Mount

Once you have your intended mount's Saddle item crafted and in your Key Item inventory, you'll be able to mount them whenever you currently have them in your party and summoned.

Effectively, the Saddle unlocks their special ability, which will be greyed out at the bottom of the screen until you have the Key Item. Hold this button while near the Pal and you'll mount it.
