Palworld patch notes for v0.1.4.0 bring vital base fixes to PC
The PC version of Palworld on Steam continues to be improved week to week, as developer Pocketpair introduces even more gameplay improvements.
The phenomenon that is Palworld continues to grow almost daily, with players on PC and Xbox still enjoying the ‘Pokemon with guns’ concept alongside its blend of creature collecting and sandbox survival. This doesn’t mean there isn’t still room for improvement as developer Pocketpair continues to roll out patches and updates at a solid clip. The Xbox version saw update v0.1.1.2 roll out earlier this week, but now it’s the Steam iteration of the game’s turn to receive a raft of fixes and improvements with the next round of Palworld patch notes.
As per a tweet from the official @Palworld_EN account, the full details of what PC players can expect from v0.1.4.0 were outlined. These Palworld patch notes refer to the immediate fixes and changes available to download right now. The main improvements are centred around how bases function, including an issue where Pals who are manually assigned to a breeding farm would become hungry; this will no longer be the case. Several measures “to prevent base Pals from getting stuck” have also been added.
All these changes ensure that the base building experience in Palworld is less taxing, alongside the usual round of bug fixes that apply to the wider game. For example, previously when players captured a certain number of Pals, there was a chance the game would crash and save data would get corrupted. Pocketpair is quick to mention in the patch notes that “the game no longer crashes even if the total number of captured objects exceeds 7000”.
While update v0.1.4.0 is available to download now for PC players on Steam, the Palworld patch notes acknowledge that it’ll be a while before those playing on Xbox will catch up. “Xbox version v0.1.1.3 will be released as soon as it is ready,” they read. Disparity between the two versions is only set to continue in future, then, as this now places them two patches apart as a result of Microsoft’s more meticulous certification process.

- Fixed an issue where enemy pals would get stuck in walls due to charge attacks.
- Implemented the first fix for an issue where the game would always crash and save data would be corrupted when the guild's total number of pals captured reached around 7000.
*The game no longer crashes even if the total number of captured objects exceeds 7000.
