In the latest update for Palworld on Xbox, version v0.2.0.6, players have encountered significant issues, notably with multiplayer save data and the incubation of eggs. According to a tweet from Palworld_EN, the update has introduced a bug preventing multiplayer save data from older versions from loading correctly, alongside an issue with egg incubation (Level Push). The development team is aware of these problems and is currently working to address them. Players are advised not to attempt loading multiplayer data until a fix is implemented to avoid any inconvenience.
The v0.2.0.6 update, despite these setbacks, has introduced a plethora of new content and improvements. Highlights from the patch notes include the debut of Palworld’s first Raid Boss, new items like the “Ancient Technical Manual” for acquiring ancient technology points, “Recovery Meds” for gradual HP recovery, and the “Electric Egg Incubator” for optimal egg temperature control. Additional features include the ability for Pals like Kelpsea and Dumud to produce items at the ranch, UI improvements, and player and base-related updates, such as a new “sleeping” player emote, relaxed rules for building placement, and the ability to edit your character’s appearance at any time (GINX TV) (Level Push).
For those exploring the technical and balance adjustments, the update has made several significant changes. These include the introduction of minimum heat and cold resistance to various armors, adjustments to egg incubator button press time, and shop price adjustments. A comprehensive list of bug fixes is also part of the update, aiming to enhance the gameplay experience by addressing issues such as treasure chest errors, Pal HP discrepancies, and more (Level Push).
While the current issues pose a challenge for Xbox players, the development team’s prompt response and the comprehensive content and improvements introduced in this update reflect their commitment to enhancing the game. Players are encouraged to stay updated on further announcements from the developers regarding fixes to these issues.
