When did Palworld version 1.0.2 release?

Palworld version 1.0.2 (console build often shown as 1.100.933) rolled out in late July 2026 — roughly two weeks after the July 10 1.0 launch and after the July 15 1.0.1 hotfix.

What does Palworld patch 1.0.2 fix?

Dedicated-server Panthalus disconnects and crashes, World Tree multiplayer terrain display, Victor & Shadowbeak disappearing after teleport, final-boss guest light bugs, mission fade-outs, Predator Hunter and Pal Effigy achievements, Mac World Tree distortion, key rebinding for Attack that enemy! and Inventory, plus Sunreach performance improvements.

Does Palworld 1.0.2 add new Pals or regions?

No. Version 1.0.2 is a stability and quality-of-life patch only. New content remains documented on the Version 1.0 page.

What is Palworld PC hotfix 1.0.2.100993?

A PC-only follow-up on July 30, 2026 that improves processing stability when playing with mods. Crossplay with consoles is unaffected. See our dedicated 1.0.2.100993 page and Launch Troubleshooting for mod cleanup steps.

Should dedicated server hosts update to 1.0.2?

Yes. Panthalus battles on dedicated servers could disconnect every player or crash the session before this patch. Update the server binary and clients together — see the Dedicated Server Guide.

Is there a patch after 1.0.2?

Yes. Hotfix 1.101.103 (July 30–31, 2026) fixes an infinite loading screen after defeating the World Tree boss. Install that build before attempting the Sealed Sanctum finale.

Palworld Version 1.0.2 Patch Notes

Palworld version 1.0.2 (console update often labeled 1.100.933) arrived in late July 2026 as the first broad post-launch stability and QoL package after hotfix 1.0.1. It adds no new Pals, islands, or gear, but it is mandatory for dedicated-server endgame and multiplayer World Tree sessions. A same-week PC-only mod-stability build (1.0.2.100993) and the critical 1.101.103 World Tree loading hotfix followed immediately.

Fixed crashes during the Panthalus battle on dedicated servers.

Fixed Tower Boss Victor & Shadowbeak disappearing after a teleportation attack.
Fixed guest light failing to display after respawn if the host defeated the final boss while the guest was waiting — critical for Zanara & Astralym co-op.

Fixed the same fade-out hang in sub-mission “Captured Adventurer”.

PC-Only Mod Hotfix 1.0.2.100993

On July 30, 2026, Pocketpair shipped v1.0.2.100993 for PC only — internal processing tweaks to improve stability when mods are active. Consoles do not receive this build. Crossplay with other platforms remains supported. Mod users should still delete leftover Early Access .pak files if crashes persist — see Launch Troubleshooting.

What Comes Next

Install hotfix 1.101.103 before the World Tree finale — it fixes infinite loading after defeating the World Tree boss. Hosts should follow the dedicated server guide so server and clients share the same patch line. Content features stay on the Version 1.0 baseline.
