No one said Palworld would be easy, but as of now, it's harder than ever before. The new game puts an Ark-like, survival twist on the classic monster-collecting Pokémon formula. Between battling powerful Pals, keeping the base stocked, and just generally staying alive, it can prove a challenging experience, especially in the early game when players are still getting used to its many systems. It's still far from perfect, and very much in early access. But that's not always such a bad thing.
Cheats, exploits, and hidden features can make Palworld easier. By now, having played the launch version and the lightly patched version that came out on January 23, anyone who's stuck with the game since launch is probably used to all its quirks. They may have even gotten accustomed to exploiting a bug or two for their own personal benefit, whether they realize it or not. But all that is about to change - and it may already be too late for some s.

Palworld wears its many inspirations on both sleeves, but this monster-catching open-world survival sim could have some serious legs.

Palworld's v0.1.3.0 Patch Explained
Palworld just got a big patch that removes "various cheats and exploits" from the game, according to Palworld infinite food hack, the use of Pal Spheres to inflict fall damage on bosses, and/or the item duplication glitch, but that isn't clear.
Everything Else In The Palworld Update
Palworld has undergone numerous other changes in its v0.1.3.0 update. First and foremost, there's finally a fix to a common bug in the Steam version that rendered the game totally unplayable. In some cases, a player would boot up the game, only to be met with a loading screen that never went away. Per the new patch, infinite loading is a thing of the past. While the clock tracking the in-world date likely wasn't of much concern to most, there was a glitch in the previous version that sometimes caused it to reset. That's since been fixed.
Otherwise, typos and other "incorrect text" have been corrected throughout the game. Palworld's patch notes are sparse, and don't include much context as to what's different. No matter what platform they're viewed on, they only briefly detail the most major changes that have been made, and promise more fixes coming in the near future. Anyone who's really curious about what's changed can hop on Palworld and see for themselves - but , the changes only apply to the Steam version for now.
