Palworld devs continue to pour their heart and soul into the surprise massive hit and today reach the milestone of a 0.1.5 release.
Posting on X they unveiled a large set of patch notes fixing a ton of issues, but also, right at the very bottom said they were looking into a potentially serious Xbox-only issue that some people have been experiencing saying, “We are currently working on an issue where auto-save fails on the Xbox and Xbox Game Pass versions. We expect that this will be resolved in an upcoming update.”
As ever the Steam version has been released but the Xbox version 1 will follow “as soon as it is ready”, leading to more minor frustration for those who may be playing the game for free on Game Pass.
One of the biggest highlights is perhaps a small Quality of Life fix. The Work button can now be toggled to allow continuous work rather than repeat tapping. Our F key thanks you Palworld.
