Palworld developer Pocketpair has released a new update for the Steam version of the ‘Pokemon with guns’ crafting and survival game, with a patch for the Xbox version to come.
Palworld Steam update 0.1.3.0 fixes a number of bugs and attempts to tackle cheating, which as IGN has reported is ramping up. Pocketpair said it’s currently prioritizing fixing critical issues with the game before moving on to adding new in-game features, such as PvP.
Palworld Steam Update 0.1.3.0 Patch Notes:
Main changes
・Fixed a bug where the loading screen did not end when logging into the world
・Fixed a bug where the world date was not displayed correctly and appeared to reset.
・Corrected various incorrect text
・Countermeasures against various cheats and exploits
Meanwhile, Xbox version v0.1.1.2 will be released “as soon as it is ready”, Pocketpair said.
Palworld is one of the biggest games in the world following an explosive early access launch that’s seen an incredible eight million copies sold in just six days. But it is also one of the most controversial games of recent times. Pocketpair has said its staff have received death threats amid Pokémon “rip-off” claims, and Nintendo has moved quickly to remove an eye-catching Pokémon mod. Overnight The Pokemon Company issued a statement, saying: “We intend to investigate and take appropriate measures to address any acts that infringe on intellectual property rights related to the Pokémon.”
