Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the Palwoods, Pocketpair have revealed a newPalworldupdate - Steam and Xbox patch v0.1.5.0. This is a larger overhaul, encompassing a juicy mixture of balance and technical tweaks that together make this spring’s breakoutsurvival gameeasier to play, less buggy and, dare I say, a little kinder, with various tweaks aimed at making life more liveable both for trainers and Pals. I have run my eye over the changelog at the bottom of this page and picked out a few highlights, like somebody fishing a stray banknote from the laundry.
The developers note that monitoring stands now default to “Relax”, even if you already had them set to a crushing work regimen (you monster). So if you find that your incarcerated labourers are slacking off post-download, you’ll need to go back and change the setting manually - all the while laughing diabolically as your base residents beg for a reprieve. Consider this an inadvertent test of your morals, I guess.
Anyway, here’s the full v0.1.5.0 changelog, plucked fromSteam- the Steam patch is live, but it sounds like the Xbox or Game Pass version is still in the winds.
