Pocketpair has released Palworld v1.0.2, the second update since the game’s full 1.0 launch earlier this month. While players already hoping for new Pals or gameplay additions will have to wait a little longer, this update focuses on bug fixes, performance improvements, and resolving issues affecting multiplayer, achievements, and more.
Below is a look at everything included in the latest patch.
Palworld v1.0.2: Official Patch Notes
Pocketpair rolled out the official Palworld v1.0.2 update on July 29, 2026. As with previous updates, the developer shared the complete list of changes alongside the release, which you can read below in full (via Steam):
Performance Improvements
- Reduced the processing load during gameplay in Sunreach and improved performance.
Crashes and Disconnections
- Fixed an issue where all players could be disconnected during the Panthalus battle on dedicated servers.
- Fixed an issue where players could crash during the Panthalus battle on dedicated servers.
- Fixed an issue where the game could crash when attempting Japanese text input in fullscreen mode.
Multiplayer
- Fixed an issue where, if a player was already in The World Tree area when the host transitioned to The World Tree area, the terrain could fail to display correctly from the host’s perspective.
- Fixed an issue where the Tower Boss “Victor & Shadowbeak” could disappear after using a teleportation attack during battle.
- Fixed an issue in the final boss battle where, if the host defeated the final boss while a guest was waiting to respawn, the guest’s light could fail to display correctly after respawning.
Missions
- Fixed an issue in the main mission “The First Islander” where the screen could remain faded out if dialogue was interrupted during a fade-out sequence.
- Fixed an issue in the sub-mission “Captured Adventurer” where the screen could remain faded out if dialogue was interrupted during a fade-out sequence.
Achievements
- Fixed an issue where the “Predator Hunter” achievement could fail to unlock even after meeting its requirements.

Graphics and Display
- Fixed an issue where the eye area of the player model could display incorrectly during cutscenes or certain player actions when using specific face types.
Controls
- Added key rebinding for “Attack that enemy!” and “Inventory”.
- Fixed an issue where, when carrying over settings from versions earlier than v0.7, changes unrelated to Controls could still be treated as control setting conflicts.
- Fixed an issue where assigning a player action to the middle mouse button could incorrectly be treated as a conflict, preventing the setting from being applied.
- Fixed an issue where the Inventory Shortcut option was not displayed in Controls.
UI
- Fixed an issue where the damage number displayed when destroying ore while mining could sometimes appear as 0.
No New Content, but Plenty of Welcome Fixes
Palworld‘s full 1.0 launch introduced an enormous amount of content, from the new Sunreach region and The World Tree to dozens of new Pals and a proper ending to the game’s story. With a release of that scale, it’s no surprise a few issues slipped through the cracks, and that’s exactly what the developers aim to address with updates like 1.0.2.
The update fixes several frustrating problems players have encountered since launch, including dedicated server crashes during the Panthalus boss fight, multiplayer issues around The World Tree, and achievement unlock bugs. It also improves performance in Sunreach while adding a few welcome quality-of-life changes, such as extra key rebinding options and UI fixes.
While it may not be the most exciting update on paper, it should make exploring Palworld‘s newest content a noticeably smoother experience (especially if you’ve been taking it slow and steady instead of rushing through it all!).
That wraps up everything included in the Palworld v1.0.2 update. Have you noticed any improvements after installing the patch, or are there still issues you’d like Pocketpair to address? Let us know in the comments below!
