Where do you find Zoe and Grizzbolt in Palworld?

Answer

Zoe and Grizzbolt are the first tower boss fight, housed in a tower dungeon near the grassland region on Palpagos Island's mainland. You unlock the tower through the main progression questline rather than stumbling on it, and the fight pits you against a trainer and her electric-type partner Pal at a moderate early-game level.

Quick answer

Zoe and Grizzbolt form the first of Palworld's tower boss fights, fought inside a dedicated tower structure near the grassland region of the mainland. Unlike wild alpha bosses, this fight is gated behind story progression, so you need to reach it through the questline rather than simply walking up.

Where to look

The tower sits in open grassland terrain, visually distinct from the surrounding wilds thanks to its tall, structured shape rather than a natural cave or ruin. It's positioned within reasonable range of the game's early starting areas, making it the natural first tower most players tackle.

Because the tower's entrance is easy to miss among the grassland's hills, mark it on the interactive Palworld map alongside the fast travel statue you'll want for repeat trips.

How to get there safely

This is one of the more forgiving location fights in the game, but a bit of prep still helps:

  1. Follow the early questline first. The tower won't be accessible until you've hit the story trigger that unlocks it, so check your quest log if you can't interact with the entrance.
  2. Bring ground-type Pals. They resist Grizzbolt's electric attacks and can turn the fight into a quick, one-sided affair.
  3. Level up modestly beforehand. You don't need to overlevel drastically, but a few levels above the recommended range smooths out any rough patches.
  4. Watch for Zoe's own attacks. She fights alongside Grizzbolt rather than standing back, so treat this as a two-target encounter.

What you get

  • Story progression, unlocking further towers and questline content
  • A useful early reward item or technology unlock tied to clearing the tower
  • Experience for your starting team
  • A good checkpoint to gauge whether your build is ready for the towers that follow, including Dr. Brawn's

You unlock it by progressing through the early game questline, which points you toward the tower once you've hit the required milestones and level.
