Confirmed release timing
Pocketpair has announced that Palworld Version 1.0 is planned for July 10, 2026. Exact storefront rollout timing can still vary by platform, region, and patch distribution.
If you are planning a server, group session, or fresh save, treat the release date as the target window and wait for the final patch notes before locking in long-term settings.
What has been publicly signaled
Official messaging has pointed toward new Pals, new regions, and the World Tree as major Version 1.0 topics.
Those are broad confirmed themes, not a complete mechanical breakdown. The safe approach is to separate official themes from speculation until the full notes are live.
How to prepare without overplanning
- Back up important saves before updating.
- Record current server settings if you run a world.
- Avoid installing major mod changes immediately before launch day.
- Wait for the full patch notes before publishing definitive tier lists or progression routes.
