Palworld Version 1.0.1 Hotfix

Palworld version 1.0.1 (build 1.100.619) shipped on July 15, 2026 — five days after the massive 1.0 launch. Pocketpair's first post-release hotfix is a stability-only patch with no new Pals, regions, or gear. Install it before long co-op sessions or heavy fast-travel loops — two of the resolved bugs directly affected save integrity and navigation.

Official Patch 1.0.1 Changelog

  • Save data discard — Fixed an issue where save data could be unintentionally discarded after certain operations.
  • Campfire burning status — Fixed the Burning debuff persisting after touching a campfire.
  • PlayStation save error — Fixed a PS5-only bug where a save error could repeatedly occur when returning to the title screen.
  • Xbox fast travel freeze — Fixed a ~30-second hard freeze after using Fast Travel on Xbox consoles.

What 1.0.1 Does Not Include

Do not expect balance reworks, new Pals, World Tree tweaks, or breeding changes in this hotfix. Tier lists and weapon numbers remain on the Version 1.0 baseline until Pocketpair publishes a numbered balance patch.

Should You Update Immediately?

Yes. Even single-player users should update for the save-discard fix alone. Xbox owners can resume normal routing through fast travel statues. After patching, verify your latest save loads, then continue: Sunreach unlockPanthalusWorld Tree.
