Patch Notes
Latest updates for Palworld
Current Version: v0.7.3 (April 5, 2026) — Palworld 1.0 releases July 10, 2026! Including the World Tree content, new Pals, the Colossal Whale, and feature-complete World Tree access.
v0.7.3 — April 5, 2026
Balance Adjustments
- Schematics stored in chests at the base can now actually be used in crafting. Blueprints in nearby chests are now visible to crafting benches and can be used directly — the same way other materials in linked storage already worked.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed an issue where using non-foundation structures such as pillars would cause roofs and other structures to float in mid-air. Structures will no longer remain suspended when support rules are broken.
- General construction stability and usability refinements — placement is described as more reliable.
Important Notes
- Existing bases are NOT grandfathered in — anything relying on the pillar trick will collapse when the chunk loads after update.
- The patch is server-side and client-side — dedicated servers and players need to be on matching versions.
- Console version shows as update 1.090.952.
v0.7.0 — "Home Sweet Home" — December 17, 2025
ULTRAKILL Collaboration
- Added V1 and V2 armor sets

Building Improvements
- Added 48 new building parts, including triangular pieces
- Added the ability to change the color of some buildings and foundations (Paint Mode)
- Changed the building UI to a list-based system for more intuitive structure selection
Raid Battlefields

- Added a new battlefield for raid bosses — players can now choose to challenge raid bosses in their base or in a separate Raid Area
- Raid Areas allow full combat without risking base damage; build temporary structures and take items in

- Fixed issue where Flopie wouldn't collect dropped items while partner skill "Helper Bunny" was active

- Fixed issue where summoned Pals would attack visitors when set to "attack aggressively"
