New Palworld Update Fixes Several In-Game Issues, Patch Notes Released

Broken achievements, stuck Pals, and more problems have now been resolved.

By Marc Deschamps

Yet another new update has been released for Palworld, and players will be happy to know that this one seems to fix a number of frustrating issues. Notably, issues related to achievements have now been resolved, and several problems that resulted in Pals getting stuck have been taken care of. Players can also expect new settings, balance adjustments, and more. There doesn't seem to be anything in terms of actual new content, so players shouldn't expect the long-waited PvP mode or anything like that. However, this should result in a smoother experience, and that's always worth getting excited about! 

While this new update seems to resolve some pesky issues, it also seems to be causing some problems for Xbox players. Multiple users on X/Twitter and Reddit have reported freezes, crashes, and even loss of save data; some have even gone so far as to say that the new update makes the game "unplayable." At this time, it's hard to say how common these problems actually are, as Pocketpair has not made any kind of announcement. Hopefully these are isolated incidents and not indicative of something more widespread. We'll have more information should we receive a statement from the developers. 

In the meantime, full patch notes from the game's official X/Twitter account can be found below:
