I think they include Game Pass players as well. So it sold probably less then 40 million, therefore they go with the “Players”.
Comment on Palworld Hits 40M Players Ahead of Friday's 1.0 Launch - FullCleared

It bugs me when GW2 also does this with “over 12 million players” when actually it’s registered accounts.
I know people who have and use multiple POF accounts obtained freely, including a guy who literally has 83 accounts and uses them all every reset.

Definitely. I was being sarcastic, not trying to defend the wording.
