Palworld is easily the biggest game of 2024 so far, but it is an early access release meaning there’s bound to be problems as it is not the final product. Developer Pocket Pair has released a Palworld update today for Xbox, and here you will find the very brief patch notes. These include several fixes such as the infamous black screen issue for the Xbox console and Microsoft store PC version.
The game has sold over 5 million copies in just three days, which means it has beaten the records of a huge bevy of juggernaut AAA games including the fastest-selling PlayStation exclusives. It is part of Xbox Game Pass January 2024, so you do not even need to pay the early access fee to enjoy what many have dubbed ‘Pokémon with guns’.
Again, it is only an early access release, which means there are bound to be issues. The developer has released an update today for Xbox and the Microsoft store PC version, and the brief Palworld patch notes include several bug fixes.
