How do you get Predator Cores in Palworld?
Kill Rampaging Pals — the predator variants. 66 species have one, and the game's files mark exactly which.
Predator Cores drop from Rampaging Pals — the predator variants that roam with a red aura and cannot be captured. That part is not in the game’s data tables and is sourced below. What IS in the files is which species can appear as one, and the answer is 65 of them.
The Core itself has no drop-table entry, which is why this is an answer page rather than one of our where-to-get pages— those exist only where the files state a rate and a quantity, and here they state neither. Anyone quoting an exact Cores-per-kill figure is reading a wiki, not the game.

4 of the 65 have no recorded overworld biome — they are dungeon or event spawns, so they are not somewhere you can farm on purpose.
Everything else on this site is extracted from Palworld’s own game files. Price and platform availability are not in those files, so this answer is read off the storefronts themselves — and it can go out of date in a way a datamined figure cannot.
